Alright, thank you. I cannot get a new enclosure at this time as I cannot afford a shorter one and we are going on vacation. I do have a thermostat on the UTH, but I don't on the lamp because I have no way of getting the probe to stay under or around it.
Well I'm...disheartened. I thought I was doing at least most things right. I know I'm a beginner, but I'm doing my best to perfect my husbandry. While I wouldn't rehome Asriel because I love this lil beep so much, maybe I should've stuck with small, furry creatures.
