Cage size ok
Hi I have a female pastel almost 500g and was wondering if this is a good size cage
0.0.1 Normal "Monty"
0.1 Pastel "Roman"
1.0 Lesser "Duke"

Looks a little small to me. She'll grow out of it fast at that size anyway. What substrate is that?

I agree with Rebelrachel13, that looks pretty small
How do you intend on creating a thermal gradient for your BP?

Yup, a little on the small side as the others have said. I'd probably upgrade to a 32qt around that size with hides on both ends...

Little small even for a BP. Just go grab your self a bigger tub there cheap enough. Just remember its about ground size not height.

That substrate looks to be a bit on the damp side. I would be very careful...you don't want your BP to develop scale rot. See the condensation on the sides of the tub? That means your humidity is a bit too high.

Ok the humidity problem is fixed. Does my pastel look at all like it has the spiderish markings on the sides? Also does she look too thin?

No Spider on that pastel, but it is a nice pastel none the less. She looks healthy.
How are you heating the cage and providing a hot & cool side?
