Hello everyone!
I am going to be getting a 4-6 month old ambilobe for Christmas and have the cage already setup. I have a 16"x16"x30" and will upgrade the size when he is older. I have a live umbrella plant and a variety of branches and vines for home to walk on. Ther is a spot in his cage that can reach up to 100 degrees but I will fix that soon. His basking spot is usually at 82-83 degrees farenheight and the rest of his cage is usually in the mid 70's. I have a Repti-Sun 5.0 UVB strip bulb, a 75 watt basking bulb, and a 60 watt night time heat bulb. I got the heat bulb because I live in Colorado and in the winter the temperature can be in the negatives, so I just want him to be warm at night. I will feed home 10-12 small crickets a day. I will dust them with calcium powder every feeding, calcium with d3 on the first and 15th of the month, and multivitamin on the 18th and 28th of the month. I do however have one problem. I have an Exoterra Monsoon RS400 msiting system, but I just can't raise the humidity above 30 percent. I will mist the cage for 120 second every hour, but I still have had no luck. I have considered getting a fogger too, but any help is appreciated. Thanks!
