Meh it’s just an apartment I’ve been living in for a few years, I’ll be outta here in June. But I will definitely keep that information for my next location!

Sully has been doing very well, he has been very active walking around and exploring, I recently got the terra-cotta dish as well so he includes crawling into it with each lap he takes. Sully was 76 grams on October 7th and I weighed him this afternoon at 84 grams (pre-poop) before his daily soak.

I use the CHE for roughly 15 minutes in the morning to get the green house up to temp, then run the flood bulbs which have given me a perfect basking temperature under the light. The Arcadia light is running late for delivery and my LED ambient light should be delivered today (6500K strip) that...
