His uth is regulated, and set to 90 (i'm sorry i forgot to mention, i figured it would be assumed because it's a basic necessity) I have a leopard gecko with light fixtures so the air temp in my room stays at about 78, and with the towel over the top of his tank the air in warm side stays at 90. The hides are not matching but are tightly fitted, he stayed in his after he ate and stayed for a day or so afterwards. My friend suggested that he might still be exploring, seeing as i fed him two days after i got him and he hid those two days.Then he ate and hid for another two days. But as of right now he is hiding. I'm using zoo med temperature and humidity gages, one on each side. I'm sorry if i'm annoying i just really want to give him the best life. He could hide all day while i'm at school and only come out when i'm home; or freely roam whenever he wants because of the lack of light. I'll have my mom check on him during school hours. i feel really stupid because the minute i posted this he slithered back into his warm hide and hasn't came out since.
