Problems right before vacation
Hi,
Its my first post, after lurking for awhile, Sorry for the long post.
Anyway, Im just hoping someone can give some suggestions, im leaving tomarrow morning and will be back friday night.
ive searched the forum a bunch of times and havent found anything directly relating to my situation.
Ok to the point, my problem is, my house is normally 15-20% humidity, And my cage requires misting or something similar to keep it in the 40-50 range, and will quickly drop to 25% if given the chance.
What i have doesnt seem to be working heres the set-up.
-20L glass tank, sliding lid, locked in
-2 UTH's one larger one about 1/3 of the tank, on the hot side, ranges from 87-92, other is on the wall, and is about 85, but just keeps the ambient above 72.
-Repti-Temp 500R thermostat
-2 caves
-astroturf
-humid hide
-little container with wet moss that lets out humidity.
-7.5 out of 9.5" of the top is covered with plexi-glas. (whole length, ventilation in long strips on the front and back).
-large water bowl, a small portion near the warm side.
Anyway, is there anything i can do short of having someone come in and check it to keep it exceptable for 5 days?
I had plastic wrap, and it almost seemed to work better, should i go back to that?
as far as eating, he ate last night a 25g weanling-adult mouse, and pooped 2 days ago. (hes 150g, 4 months). Hasn't shed in the almost 3 weeks ive had him but eyes are not really blue nor is he pale.
Also anything else to do before going away?
Thanks a ton
