Ok. Also, I saw within a thread somewhere here that people leave their CHE on 24/7 and then also have a basking bulb during the day?

Late to the party here but I’m wondering.. I need to have a basking bulb AND a CHE? FYI I have two Russians and a sulcata. Indoors mostly (sulcata is a baby)

Wow, job well done man! Looks awesome

Okay thank you. I plan on having it hang so it comes straight down and isn’t at an angle

But that model or whatever is what I was checking. I’m gonna get the biggest one

Sounds good. https://www.petsuppliesplus.com/categories/reptile/habitats%20and%20decor/heating%20and%20lighting/Zilla-Reflector-Dome-Silver/5104 This work?

@ZEROPILOT & @daniellenc Thanks guys, I’ll start googling around. Any particular wattage I should be looking for?

Don’t think I have this.. I just have the mini dome fixtures. Best place to purchase the CHE and fixture?

Awesome, thanks. Don’t hurt me but.. what is CHE? Lol

Hoping you all can help me... I have two Russians and a baby sulcata . They go outside in the sunshine during the week but I bring them inside at night and when the weather is bad (Florida life). But- I’m sick and tired of the zoo med bulbs breaking and costing a fortune. My question to you...

A buddy gave me an ikea one to use (didn’t even know they sold timers...) and I haven’t had any problems with it. Comes on like clock work

No offense taking, just simply shared where I learned that I do. But I Deff agree with you. Thanks for sharing your input!! It’s appreciated.

This has been learned from Kenan harkin and his work with the turtle alliance and such. You can access his information online. But every owner has their preference :)

alright I’ll keep their light out there. Thank you!

hey guys.. I have two Russians and they’re both about 2 years old, housed together. I keep them inside now but am contemplating moving them to my screened in porch. Safe from elements, but still outside. I do live in Florida where it’s hot and humid. Has anyone in Florida ever kept their...

Hi there! I'm in Tampa, Florida and have two russians and a sulcata. Depending on weather, they go from the yard to my screened in porch, and then during those random cold snaps, they even have their own bedroom. Very interested, would love to give this lady a lovely home in the sunshine state :)

awesome!! would love to see some updated photos :)

Very cool set up. How big is your russian now? I've been thinking of doing the kiddie pool idea also! I did read on here that using the terra cotta pot as a hiding area could make it too hot. They recommended making an underground bunker sort of using bricks to build it out. Thought I'd share...

I LOVE this housing idea! Great for some outside exposure. Do you have a thread going over how you built this and such?
