Re: Im newb with BP's
Temps should def be no lower than 76-83 cool side... no higher than 88-95ish on the hot side... Humidity should always be above 50%... I keep mine at 60-70 all the time doesnt seem to bother them at all... I do know when you get down too low they get an RI. The cheapest way to get the humidity above 50% is get a tub... If you REALLY want I can tell you how to HELP get it up but its gonna cost you atleast 14$... 4$ more than a tub.

Re: Im newb with BP's
you should aahhhh... take care of the humidty... get a proper set up... feeding right now is the least of your worries... Until you got 78-83 cool 88-95 warm humidity above 50% humidity and most importantly for digestion... belly heat(UTH) hooked up to a thermostat you definetly dont need to be thinking about feeding... If your really tight for money I got a thermostat and CHE... you find the lowest price on the internet for both of em... take off 5$ each price pay for shipping and ill send you what you need.

Re: Im newb with BP's
Ceramic Heat Emitter(I paid 40$ but you can prolly find it cheaper)... its 150W and a repti500 or whatever thermostat. I think your still missing the point... All you need is a tub(10$), 2 hides(.99), UTH hooked up to a thermostat and you should be good... All of that would be cheaper than buyin my stuff.

Re: Im newb with BP's
Honestly, if you go to the main forums page and instead of choosing General BP's, look in BP Husbandry - there is a sticky entitled "glass tank setup". Take like 15 minutes to read what it says in there. Read it twice if you have to. All of your questions will be answered in that post, and the answers will come faster.
Looks like you are a few 'tweaks' from having a working setup, I just think you need to take the time to research some of this on your own.
