yes i am using a dig. thermometer (accurite) and yes he is in mid shed right now and its making me crazy. and i dont like to put him in the tub to compensate for low humidity because he always craps all over me after i get him outand the cool side hide temp is 77ish during day and 80ish at night( difference due to light placement) and warm side temp is 89ish during day and 85ish at night( again difference due to light placement)
