A little back story. We have been battling with a couple dry start leopards. Carrot and pedialyte soaks, sun, temp, you name it we have been watching every move. Lost one and the other is hanging on but not healthy for sure. Tom's information on dry starts has been so helpful and it does give comfort, however so frustrating.
We keep looking for something we are doing wrong to explain , fully knowing the odds against the little dry starts. Determined to get them over the "death hump".
This whole time we have had multiple humidity and temp gauges in their habitat. Holding between 80-100F and 70-90 humidity. Never using a temp gun. We felt that was the last piece that we hadn't tried.
Now using the temp gun, as of yesterday, trying multiple attempts we have almost a ten degree temp difference than our Jump Start and about a six degree from the other.
Has anyone else experienced this much of a difference?
Thanks for your input in advance,
Katie
