Okay! Update, with the more accurate thermometer, placing the sensor under her warm hide, it is 94 (well within range, I believe), while the temp everywhere else is 82. So I believe I'm good in that respect? Still getting the thermostat, I'll be ordering it tonight or tomorrow, just to be on the safe side. I normally keep the cage covered with a towel, but while I was shifting things around, I'm sure the humidity went down. I'm going to cover it again and wait a few minutes, see if the humidity improves, but at the moment it is reading at 40%. I will also be moving her water dish closer to her light source, so that should help with the humidity as well. If her temps are staying consistent without the lamp, do I need it?
Edit: Also, my substrate is aspen. If I see humidity becoming a problem, I'll try the cypress.
