    I picked up one of those heat transfer coolers for about $50 and leave the lid cracked to regulate temps

    Interesting we have some counter opinions here now on the age and size. I would think anywhere in the low 80’s would be sufficient for digestion, esp as others have warned that overheating is a risk at this size . I’ll try to withhold judgement and just deal with my individual as best as I...

    Yes I made small shooting gallery in advance but I think it’s not really working with the scale at this point. i went ahead and made a run type appliance and it’s helped with visibility. Of course crickets still just jump clear, but the good news is my BSFl (in a separate dish) are getting...

    Things are going fine I think I can turn the UVB back on tomorrow, Lil dude was striking a full lion-king pose this morning looks pretty proud. He’s Actively hunting and I know he ate a few big mouthfuls. He seems to have occasionally darted at things I can’t see. Unfortunately i think he...

    I don’t feel like I should name names here at this point. it’s not a major breeder. Just some lady. 2020 I should have pressed for more, better pictures and scale in the ones I saw. This is the internet bargain hunters lament, I’m not new in that respect so shame on me. I did get a...

    Let’s just say that if it seems to be too good to be true perhaps it is. Got to relearn that sometimes. I needed Jimminy Cricket but he was too gut loaded. Hopefully we can make it through the wonder years. Shh, Little guy is sleeping now..?

    Yea this is not ideal for us. He actually got right through the larger mesh in the top and ended up in the UVB fixture. Hopefully I caught it soon enough. I think I’ll leave the UVB off for a couple of days, he seems unaffected. I almost had a heart attack. So much preparation and I got hit...

    Yes thanks it’s clear to me that I’m being told a bill of goods. I put “him” at 3 weeks or less. Male but I’m not to confident at this point. Looks pretty flat. I’ll try to get a better shot soon.

    For the cham’s eyes? I bought the red ‘night’ type basking bulb because; on the thermal switch it could come on anytime the temp at the top falls below 78*. But I have heard recently that they like it really dark to sleep. I’m wondering now if the red type basking light is actually dark...

    I’ve tried the5/16ths and the 3/8x3/4 residential type. Haven’t looked into Commercial grade options so I’ll see what I can find, but yea I’m hoping I won’t have to have it cut from a single sheet or anything that drastic.
