I recently purchased a larger enclosure so my Western Hermann’s juvenile would have more space to roam. He is currently about 3 inches and growing. But, I am struggling keeping the larger enclosure at the proper temperature. On his old enclosure I was using a 50w bulb and it was about 18 in tall. This enclosure is 24 in tall and so I purchased a 100w. But, am noticing it is not properly heating the rest of the enclosure. It needs to be 95-100 degrees under the basking spot. I do also have a second 50w heat lamp on the other side to create a temperature gradient. But, am not seeing any difference in temp. Any tips to increase the temperature?
