I have a Western Hermann’s hatchling born in August, from Garden State/ Chris. I got a total of 3, in separate enclosures. Using Christmas tree tote for enclosed chamber, coco coir under cypress mulch. Humidity ranging from 70-80%, temp from 79-95 in the heat lamp area. 65 watt incandescent...
I’m using the Mazuri original formula and soak it before offering it. My Western Hermann’s hatchlings all enjoy it it. I love watching them dig into it! They get it about 3 times per week. So far I’ve been able to mostly feed them edible weeds from the yard, and have been mixing in some...
Hi Dede21,

Yes, I have a meter. I guess maybe I could have worded it better. I’m set up for the 10.0 Zoomed T8 24 inch tube bulb with zoomed hood.
