History - He's coming along nicely, had his first shed since being with me on the 13th, growing nicely, loves to be handled, practically jumps out of the cage at me
Cage Info:
Cage Type - Describe your cage (Glass, Screen, Combo?) DIY screen cage What are the dimensions? 16x16x30
Lighting - What brand, model, and types of lighting are you using? Basking light is a regular 25W bulb, UVB is the linear reptiSUN 5.0, I will be changing the UVB on ChristmasWhat is your daily lighting schedule?On at 8 off at 8
Temperature - What temp range have you created (cage floor to basking spot)? bottom of the cage is 70, middle is 75, with basking spot at 80Lowest overnight temp? between 65 and 60How do you measure these temps? Zoomed digital thermometer, Zoo med digital thermomitor/hygrometer
Humidity - What are your humidity levels? 60% on average, between 80-90%after misting How are you creating and maintaining these levels? My house actually makes it easy to maintain these levels, maintain these levels by misting, looking for a new live plant, but no luck since summer was so darn hot What do you use to measure humidity?

Current Problem - The current problem you are concerned about.Not really a problem, just making sure everything is tip/top. My question is mostly about supplementation. What is the difference between what I have and what is in Repashy Calcium plus?? And my other question is why does Kuzco prefer to be out on me, exploring than in his cage? He's very friendly and amusing so I'm not complaining at all, I just want to know why He is mostly dark in the cage, but the minute he sees me (and it is just me that he does this to) he brightens up and heads for the door?
