Hi all,
We are new here and would like to introduce our home. Please let us know if there are things we can improve for healthy growth!
Below is Jet and Pepper’s home:
3x2 ft glass enclosure with 1x2 ft solid plastic removable top (right above their humid moss hide) and 2x2 ft screen top
Includes:
Substrate layers (3 in deep) in tray in 2x2 activity area
- bottom: reptisoil
- mid: reptibark
- top: coarse-grade coco husk
Subtrate layers in humid area (half of the area is moistened and half always dry)
- bottom: reptibark
- top: sphagnum moss
Lighting
- uvb strip (arcadia desert)
- 160 watt powersun
- 75 watt red mercury vapour at night
Temperatures
- cool: 80-85F
- basking: 115F
- night: 77-82F
Humidity outside hides
- hot side: 27-30%
- cool areas: 55-60%
3 humid hides
- 2 in activity area (80-82F with about 55-60% humidity)
- 1 in humid area: moss cave that I spray each day (78-80F with 99% humidity inside)
Water dish right below fogger tube
- water drips out of the tube with the fog so the water never dries out
- water dish is slightly covered by the lighting to help with humidity
- fogger is set betwen lowest and mid level and running all day
Rock slate
- basking + eating
- in middle of activity area
Decoration
- big and small rocks to hold heat
- 6 house plants
- front and side of glass is covered by black vinyl sticker to block torts view
Other:
- 3 heat mats (left side, back side and bottom) in the 1x2 humid area
- 5 hygrometers in different spots (haha)
- 2 fake hanging plants
- seashells for different ground textures
- cuttle bone
I may seem to have so much heating devices but I live in the coldest province of Canada and my babies love em.
Thanks for dropping by!
