My AC is broken and they're waiting on the part to fix it, but for now, the house is hot. I turned off his lamps and heaters, close all the blinds, and have two fans going on in the room at all times but the temperature never dips below 80°F and goes as high as 91°F. Any tips to help cool him...
Today I was soaking my Russian when I noticed he had been rubbing his eyes and they were a bit pink and puffy around the edges. I've been away for college and my parents have been taking care of him but he seems to be doing fine otherwise. His enclosure is 2.5ft wide and 5ft long and typically...
Just finished moving him into his new home! I got the dimensions wrong in the original post so his place is a bit smaller than I originally thought, but still pretty big! (5 x 2.5x 1.25)

Okay! So I've fixed a few things. The ceramic heat bulb I ordered online for him arrived today and seems to be working well. It's also got a thermostat attached so I can keep track of the temperature but it's mainly just for night time when it's gets cold. I've also cut back on his calcium...
I've only had him for about two weeks so I can't tell if I'm doing something wrong or if he's fine and I'm just over reacting. I've got a 160V UVB light on him 12-13 hrs a day (7am to 7 or 8pm), his diet consists of kale, collard greens, mustard greens, turnip greens, and romain lettuce every...
I bought too much veg for him this week and it'll go off before he can eat it, can I Freeze it and save it for later? It was fresh when I bought it so I thought it'd be okay but I just wanted to double check...
