How can I keep Ralph's outside dogloo humid? The door has plastic strips on it. The bedding is timothy hay.
Currently he comes inside at night for warmth. It was not a good situation keeping him in the garage as his dogloo was too warm with garage temps too cold. He wouldn't ever come out.
Now that I've been bringing him in, he's gotten his wonderful personality back. (Plus the higher temps and sunnier days outside does wonders )
When he goes back outside, I want to make sure his temps are doing okay.
What should the humidity be? How will I sustain that? (I've never worried about humidty prior)
What should his basking temp be?
What should his cool area be?
What should his night time temp be?
I don't have a basking light for him outside, as he flops out in the sun and basks for a few hours each day. He has access to plenty of shade, if he needs to be cool.
I have a 75w red light for his dogloo at night. I have a 150w basking light for inside.
Inside temps: night has been 80
mornings under the basking light have been 95-100
cool side has been 75
Don't have something to check the humidity.
Have not been using UVB inside because he's in the sun 80-90% of the day.
I apologize in advance for asking these questions. I know it has been posted on the thread, but my brain turns to mush when I am trying to look for something and can't find it. Then I get distracted and forget to look for what I was originally looking for.
