I am going to be taking a nine day trip in a couple of weeks and I was making plans for my cham. She is a little more than a year and a half old and I had a few quick questions about what everyone else usually does for their trips.
I will have the mister on the whole time, and I unfortunately can't turn it off at night since I don't have a timer, but she is usually fine with it.
She has gone a week without food before, and I have someone coming to feed her halfway through the trip, but I am just wondering if I should have someone come in. I mean the obvious answer is yes, but I am worried something will go wrong since the roaches can be frisky and freak people out (well, those who aren't used to them).
I just want to know what everyone else usually does when they go out of town for more than a week.
Also, I don't trust having her lights on while I am gone, so I have them off. Will she be okay without her lights for a few days? Most people have told me that it isn't something to do regularly, which I agree with, but it is okay once in a while. I would like to verify that this fact is true, since this is the first trip I am taking away from my cham for longer than a week. The house will be warm since no one will be in it, around 75 degrees, and I am giving her a dose of D3 in her calcium before I leave, but I am aware that this is no replacement of UVB intake.
Any tips on how I could make this easier for her and I?
