I can do that. The humidity in her cage does tend to stray here and there but it generally remains between 40 and 50% though this is by manual misting during the day.) Originally I was unable to maintain it but a vet near where I live suggested placing a bit of plastic over part of the mesh to maintain that. It's a temporary solution.
Coupled with the fact that the temp probes (from what I gathered in other posts) should be in her bedding rather than just near the bottom of the tank. I will make a trip to walmart today and pick that up. Is there something I can treat this wire mesh with to help stop this crazy heat sway?
I hope to build a wooden enclosure that I can line with the foam to insulate and protect the sides and back of her cage. It's a 20 US Gallon Terrarium and she's currently on Zoo Med Repti-Bark (http://www.petsmart.com/product/inde...ductId=2752663). She is heated by two Red 75Watt heat lamps (both on the warm side) and a UTH, Which is also on the warm side. The three heating sources are monitored by the aforementioned Zilla thermostat.
Sorry for the long posts and lack of info!
