    The blue thermometer is on the cool side, I use another probe type thermometer on the hot side and it reads 89-91F. I have also switched the thermometers from side to side and the temps seem to be consistent. 82-84 on the cool side, and 89-91 on the hot side.

    I had little luck with things like that, he tends to move things around and knocks things over. He moves the logs hides around as heavy as they are.
    I will consider adding more leaves and look into covering the hide entrances more to limit light using foam boards. I wonder if that would be good.

    It has eaten 0 times, and I handle it about once a week, at most.
