There’s zero need to apologize for posting and asking questions. I’m going to ask some questions in return.
Are those measurements from inside her enclosure? What has her basking temp been?
Hello how r u ? The humidity measurements r from the inside of the closure .Her morning basking temps are 85 . The humidifier runs only at night when temps go below 70. The humidifier is a dyi lol I made at the last min lolThere’s zero need to apologize for posting and asking questions. I’m going to ask some questions in return.
Live plants will boost and maintain some humidity. To further maintain it, you can grab a dollar store shower curtain and wrap the back and one or both of the sides with it. Just be careful if you use tape to make absolutely sure there is no way for her to have any contact at all with it. I use very fine wire to attach things. Only run the humidifier at night when temps throughout her enclosure are at least 68. You want a good temp drop at night and they can handle temps in the 60’s pretty easily. Running it during the day, combined with the heat of her basking area increases risk of respiratory infection. If even with her light, her basking temps are well below the desired 80, try a stronger wattage of bulb. Just keep a close eye on it when conditions change that it doesn’t become too hot.
Btw, what is wrong with your humidifier? If it works, it’s fine.
I’m good, thanks. And yourself?
Oooo noo she's 8 months I thought I had to feed her 5 to 10 3/4 dubia ever dayI’m good, thanks. And yourself?
So, try wrapping the back and both sides of the enclosure with shower curtain and that should be a big help in holding onto and maintaining humidity. You could add a mid day misting session of a minute or two if you don’t already have one. If your humidifier works, that’s all that matters.
Your basking temp of 85 is a tad bit warm. Are you following the ‘regimen’ to reduce her egg production? Temp no higher than 80 and feeding 3-4 feeders, 3 days a week (Plus treats)?
Plus I give her bsfl ,waxworms ,hornworms ,and other treats here and their
At 8 months old, she is grown enough to have a reduced diet. The more she eats, the more eggs she’ll produce. 5 dubia/feeders of that size isn’t so bad, but 10 every day is way too much. You can start cutting her back slowly, so she can adjust. Definitely start by reducing to no more than 5 feeders for about a week or two and then cut back to every other day. Keep reducing however you prefer until you reach 3-4 feeders, 3 days a week. I always feel bad on the weekend when they don’t get fed so that is when I give the treats...just 1 or 2 bugs.
Thank u sooo much ! U r amazing this will help my pocket too lol
Look into breeding your own bugs as well then you don’t have to buy aby
It's so hard lol
Its defiantly a process and it takes time. Many of us breed our own bugs on here. If you decide you are interested just reach out
Thank u sooo much I could do that ! Forget crikets to smelly too lol
