i know im nervous something happened in the time PetSmart had him. I doubt they have a fogger and such for at night and the little glass cubicle they had him in seemed like a baren wasteland during store hours with and they enclosures are all connected for bearded dragons and other desert...
i just want to make sure im doing everything i can for the little dude. If he came sick at least ill know i did my part so if i need to unfortunately get another one i want to make sure im not the reason something happens again. But i havent noticed any eating yet, i put enough crickets tht the...
also did you read what was happening last night? he had his nose straight up in air and mouth open breathing while he was sleeping while his fogger was going, made me kinda nervous about the RI
Yes it is a ReptiSun T8 5.0 15 watt. and okay i was a little confused with the chart so i raised it but i will drop it right now. and yes the temp is not going over 80 on the very top of the screen, hand feels fine on the mesh or wire as well
no way to really measure UVB unfortunatly but i believe the 4 inches i have it up and with the ReptiSun 5.0 18w(NOT HO) i feel tht height is okay
heat lamp is about 8 inches away but the baking temp is 80.6 in the screen cage and goes down to 70 and the absolute bottom where he wont be
I hvae 2 basking spots 1 for UVB which is the closer vine going to top and one for heat which is the one pushed to back. I also have 2 or more vines completely hidden in the plants and also one for easy food access to the right and as well as water right under where he is.
yep i got the extra plant in but i need a brick or something to give it tht extra few inches of height but its big enough to give alotta privacy but i will be going to home depot today for a brick or 2. But today he is sitting at the his basking branch and hasnt moved really and his eyes are...
So i went into his own little room to check on humidity level before i went to sleep and little man was in the same spot but i saw him looking almost straight up in his sleep open mouth breathing it looked like? Im not to sure but the care sheet says let fogger run all night from 2am till 6am...
So of course i go back to the lowes i went to yesterday and they had a medium sized gold pothos for my center peice, until i can get a ficus after winter hopfully. But will this work? Its big enough i can put a brick or somethiing only a few inches high and it will for sure cover up all those...
Okay well ill be in touch tomorow around 2 to check in. But yes I've followed everything to a tee or as close as I could get it with the small resources I have.
Also kinda odd but would Lincoln logs work well for horizontal branches?
okay so i just went a checked on him and he seems to be just laying on a branch and eyes are closed.. Nose is not in air so i think worries of RI are diminished but he just seems groggy and still no interest in his crickets
yes and started working on it but i was wondering if it would work with a smaller bottle tho and a different household material for them to climb. Im currently using a larger smart water bottle but im stumped with what they could climb up that i have in my house
Okay Thank you guys again! And yes they are definitely not like any other pet! But real quick so you recommend waiting for the addition of another plant or just get it over with today? And if he doesnt start eating out of cup should i try free range now tht the base of the cage is on a flat...
Okay so great god damn news! i just moved him into my sisters empty room got everything for him set up again in under 20 mins to keep stress to minimun. But i left the room after i got my temps all good and little man is exploring his little heart out and i watched him drink as well. His eyes...
