I recently found globe artichokes at trader joes and fed them to my Russian. He ate some but when I got home the leaves were like potato chips and to rough for him to eat. Any ideas? Thanks

Thanks, how often do these plants need to be watered after the soil dries outside?

I have been growing some RT seed mix indoors recently and there seems to be a lot of gnats always around them. I often kill lots of them by hand but then more appear the next day. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Jakob

My RT has been peeing a lot lately but not the white urates just clear fluid that comes in a burst. Is this a problem? He seems fine besides that with no eating problems and he's been drinking water so I don't know what to think.

Thanks, any other suggestions?

The fixture for my uv light (24" tube) seems to not be working. I got a new bulb and it still won't turn on. Any recommendations for a new fixture?

Thanks, is the zilla thermostat good?

Ya that's what I'm worried about, how can I keep the temps warm enough for an RT at night

If my heat lamp is turned off at night and I see some condensation on the Window, will that lead to mold overnight?

Hi Everyone, Do I need to ever clip my RT's nails? He seems to almost scratch his eye when he wipes his face while eating.

Is the carpet to help some sort of previous health issue? Otherwise Eco earth coco coir is a great substrate. I don't know if all carpet is the best way to go.

I have the tube, thanks tom I will (re)read these

Yes it is the dark one. Of course I have the reptisun 10.0 UVB bulb. It's for a Russian so I turn it off at nigh [hr] Would u recommend I replace it with a che immediately?

I use a purple zilla heat lamp... I always have is this ok I heard they can be bad?

Wow! I planted some Russian tort mix from Carolina Per Supply exactly two weeks ago and it's over 4 inches tall now.
