Hey everyone. I just recently got a redfoot who I very affectionately have named Darth Maul. He is a fiesty little bugger! I have him in a 4ft by 3 ft enclosure with a UVB light and standard heating bulb for day and a ceramic heating build for night time as well. They aren’t in the attached picture because the screen cover is off in it. I also just put in a fogger to help with humidity since my apartment gets very dry during winter. The hot side is sitting at 90F with80% humidity and the cool side is sitting at 80F with 80% humidity. He has a hide on both sides. I’ve been soaking him for 20-30 minutes daily followed by feeding him. He has been eating and drinking great but he seems to only eat and drink when I put him there. Every night before I turn out the lights I put him in his water dish and he drinks a bunch before roaming around a bit before going to his food bowl and eating a ton and going to bed. I’ve never seen him actively leave his hide to eat or drink though. Is that just something hatchlings do?
Also side note the rocks in the center have been removed since I took that picture. He thought they were food. So I removed them immediately after he came in contact with him.
