Anything directly under the CHE is gunna be a bit hotter the 82-86 right? After turning on his UVB light in the morning it gets up into the 80's but right under the CHE it is about 90.
It is damp but the humidity above the substrate goes down so quickly. I know we have to spray and add water throughout the day. I'm trying to figure out how to keep it up with out having to spay it 5 times a day. I'm currently not working but when I go back to work I want him to be ok while no...
So we closed the sterlite bin we have with the lid that came with it. The cut part of it put for the heat fixture. The humidity is not staying up. I personally think we were given crap substrate so we're gunna try a different substrate first and sees if that makes a difference. If we can't keep...
I have a 3 mo th old red foot and he loves his cool hides. I find that odd since I've been hearing that about 80 is there fav temp. After he eats ill put him under the CHE to help him digest and then he heads strait for the opposite end of the tank. Any idea why he would do that? We have a...
We intend on varying his diet more when he's a bit bigger. We put of some fruit with his greens and a mushed up pellet for protein ever once on a while. He seems to only want the greens. We also have D3 and calcium supplements to put in his food.
For the 5.0 uvb, how far from the substrate should it be? We have ot on the back wall 12 in. From the substrate. We have the heat on one side and the opposite side stays at about 75
Yes aiming downward. My only concern is he likes to hang out in the shaded part of the tank away from the light...
We just got a 3 month old red foot. I scoured everything I could to try and fix our humidity problem. What I found was a million and one different opinions on what % it needs to be and how to keep it up. Now I can tell you with certainty, have a good heat source and cover your enclosure! Cover...
We have. Also we've been told MANY different views on humidity. The reptile store we got it from says just to spray down an open enclosure twice a day. Others say have it fully enclosed. Some say 60% humidity others say 80% I'm so confused!
So we JUST got our 3 month old red foot. What is considered normal behavior? They are burrowed for most of the day. Also they are making odd noises. One is a whistle noise the other is a click noise. Very faint. Not consistent. I picked them up for their soak this morning ans the whistling sound...
Hey Everyone! We just got our 3 month old red foot. We have them in a 50 gal sterlite bin. We heard something about the enclosure needing good air circulation? Is that true? We currently have the bin enclosure in our closet with the lid off and doors wide open. Our thermometers are coming in in...
