As recommended, I’m starting a new thread with the items I’ve been looking at for our set up. Would very much appreciate your approval before going ahead with anything, we want to get everything just right!
This is the enclosure I’ve been looking at for our hatchling. It measures 3.15ft by 5.15ft and is 30cm high. The hide and ‘viewing’ areas have separate pull out bottoms for easy cleaning.
I have 26 litres of ZooMed ReptiBark (fir bark)on my list, will that be enough to fill it as deep as is needed? Should I stick with just that 1 type of substrate or have different types in different areas? I’ve also seen edible bedding by Komodo (screenshot of ingredients below). Is this worth getting for now as weeds etc are scarce in winter?
Terracotta plant tray for water
Small cuttlefish bones
I read that nutrobal calcium & vitamin D3 powder is recommended. Is that something you guys endorse?
Arcadia solar basking floodlight 75w bulbs
Any recommendations for best lamp?
Do I need a dimmable thermostat? I’m not very technically savvy so the simplest options would be great.
Arcadia ProT5 12% UVB Kit. 24w, is that right?
Any recommendations for thermometer & hygrometer?
Will make sure there are plenty of things to climb, hide under, play with etc and some safe to eat plants.
Anything else I’ve missed?
