New Caye Caulker Dwarf Boa and would like general information

[KevinK]

Would it be good to put the probe for the hygrometer in the substrate or leave it where it is? What thermostat would you recommend?

with the animal plastic cages would it be alright if it hangs over the sides a couple inches? The surface I have right now is only 36 inches long.

Put the hygrometer probe an inch or two above the substrate. If you put it IN the substrate it's going to read 100%.

I use Vivarium Electronics thermostats (all models are great).....but Herpstats are also great and very popular.


Yup! You'll be just fine if it hangs off the sides. Shouldn't be an issue. I've had the same problem before without any issues.
