Hi, hope you can help me understand what's going on.
I bought 3 young j.jacksonii in September.
They were in a small exo Terra with a basking spot of low 80s ambient in 70s, sprayed 4 times a day, 5.0 exo Terra UV tube.
Since iv had them all 3 didn't eat much and only fruit flies.
They slept during the evenings alot which concerned me but I put it down to them going to sleep when it was dark out side rather when there lights went out.
1 developed a swollen eye, keep her eye closed all the time then died.
Another recently closed its eyes more and more often over a few days then died.
So I'm left with 1. She is closing her eyes in the evening bit is active in the morning but instead of assuming its closing its eyes because its dark outside I thought I would ask what I'm doing wrong.
I know they were raised in a exo Terra but in case that was the problem iv transferred her to a reptibreeze and instead of misting I'm using a fogger as the only things I can research is possibly a URI so I thought less spray and more airflow.
Really don't want her to die aswell, and really don't understand what I'm doing wrong
I'm keeping 1.3 k.boehmei and 0.1 Ellioti with same lighting misted 4 times a day and they are doing fine so just don't get it :-(
