Do you only have 1 hide? Usually we like to see 2 hides in the enclosure, one on the warm side and one on the cool side.

Welcome. Monty is beautiful.
I did have two hides. You can just about make out the second hide in my avatar pic. I took it out in favor of a larger water bowl on the recommendation of the guy at the reptile store. He does hide under the logs i have in there also. Seems to spend most of the day either under the logs at the back or in his warmer hide and normally moves every cpl hours between the two. I wish i'd just gone out and bought a thermostat now rather than wait until tomorrow for Amazon. I bought the Hydrofarm MTPRTC, it has been mentioned here before with a few members using it with no problems. Fingers crossed!
