Oh! I'm hitting petsmart right now. Thank you so much! My poor little guy

Make sure it has the 6% bulb. And if they do not have that then reptisun t5HO fixture with the 5.0 bulb.

Yep that is the one... And you will need to raise it 4-5 inches off the top of the cage. Measure from the bottom of the fixture to the screen. That distance will put him right in a max exposure of 6 UVI. You can lift it up to 6 inches off the top if that is easier. Until baby stops screen climbing the top the fixture stays raised up. As soon as baby stops you can drop it down to the screen top of the cage.

I am not online as often as I used to be but there are many wonderful people in the forum that will help you if I am not around. I will be alerted of activity in this thread so I will check in as I see updates. Read through all the links I gave you, they will really help you get a better understanding of all the basics.

I will do that. Thank you!

I’m still leaning towards boy, base of tail seems a little chubbier than the rest in some pics

I'll love it either way! The male coloring is so cool though. Also, the lifespan thing...

Am I crazy or am I seeing some kind of blue on this kids head and back? Maybe just a reflection or something?

Looks blue to me

I thought so! At least I know Im not nuts now. That's so weird! I has to be some kind of reflection. He/she is much to young to show blues.
