yes the uvb is behind it toward the back. its as wide as the enclosure (like 4 feet or maybe 3 feet. The bulb is about 4 months old so Ill be swapping near Jan/Feb. :) Thanks for the concern and help!

My room is usually the hottest room in the apartment. so besides early in the morning, the cage isnt usually too harsh on wide ranges of temps. He moves around a lot, usually up and down the cage or on the sides just wondering around and then every so often goes to his spot for a few. Any...

Thank you very much. Getting him a plant this weekend :)

If that is too high, that should definitely be changed because I was under the impression 90s even close to 100 was okay for a basking spot. :(

Well it wasn't as bad 2 weeks ago and I assumed it was part of shedding, but I'd say in the past week it's looked much worse. I will also move light up as well, thanks for that tip :) If the spikes don't grow back, I will be sad for the fella, but it won't change how much I care and want...

Basking is a 150w zoo med (natural daylight) type bulb. I will add more foliage if that helps as well, that is no issue and can knock it out this weekend. Maybe I should try a 100w? I moved the spot (branch down a bit), and temps are mid 80's, maybe that's better. I googled pics of...

Ignore the little lamp on the cricket box, it isnt on, its an extra that I was moving earlier. It does not get used. The higher branch going across is his basking area. also ignore the black gauge at the bottom as I just put that in today to see humidity (room mate had extra), so it is...

Ill take him to the vet as soon as I can, but I checked w another temp gauge and even held it about an inch or more than he is tall, so even closer to the light and it was only hitting high 95-100 (one said 95, one said 100). that's higher/closer by a bit than he would be to it... I don't get...

I am really worried about my little guy. He has been peeling a lot lately (past month), in different sections of course, one day its legs one its head, etc etc. Well I try to mist him a couple times a day, hoping to aid the process, but lately his back area has turned brownish... it...

I definitely plan on adding some good foliage for him :)

Thank you all for that advice! That will definitely be on my mind. yeah i watch the dripper non stop, i am paranoid about things like that, so that wont be an issue :) and definitely noted on the night temps, didnt know it could go that low :) i think I am going to re arrange the vines...

Male veiled prob 6 months old, hes about 5-6 inches without tail. i will attach picture, but some notes on my set up and care: enclosure is the large one as youll see. i think its about 5 feet tall got some vines/etc for him to climb got a water dripper (the little dripper) that...

Yeah that was what worried me so I have been watching for everything. Abnormal poop, movement, eating, drinking, etc etc. he seems perfect, which is awesome! :) ive been patient and slow with manuevering my hand around him and hes slowly being less agressive. he is chilling on my shoulder...

Well that makes me feel even better. :) I am pretty new to this, and haven't even had a reptile in years. Glad to know they aren't super duper brittle. Awesome and quick responses on this forum! I think I am here to stay!

That makes me feel a bit better. It isn't grass like it would be in nature or some other organic bottom so it made me nervous. But I think hes fine. He's still being a little hissy fit about my hand going in there, but He will get used it. :rolleyes:
