I just went and bought a 50 watt basking bulb, basking spot is 83-84 now.

An analog thermometer I think? Its not the digital kind. And its a 7 month old Jacksons.

I just got a Reptisun 5.0, and either that or the weather warming up causes the cage to be 84 Degrees Basking, 80 Degrees gradient (which I need to lower). If I were to have the heat lamp on it would be 90+.

And also, thank you everyone for your insight!

How far away should the UVB light be? It shines clear down to the bottom...

I mean, I see him drink quiet often. And as soon as I turn the dripper on he goes right for it. Also, I forgot to update that a bit, I actually spray him for around a minute. But I will try the warm water, right now its justroom temperature.

So I noticed yesterday that my Jacksons urate had a pink tinge to it. I tried doing some research on it but nothing really came up. Now today it is a little worse, so I have come to you guys for a little insight. He also hasn't been eating as much.

Here are some pics

I imagine he is slipping off, its only after I spray his cage does he do it. He tries grabbing onto the wet (fake) leaves and just cant grip them.

So every now and then my jacksons decides its a good idea to do a little bungee jumping without the rope. From time to time I hear a *plunk*, lo and behold he is at the bottom! Anyways, I was just wondering if this hurts them? My biggest concern is him hitting an eye or getting a horn caught in...

So I took into consideration what I was told needs to be done for my cage, and now I think I got it all squared away. Please take a look at what I have, and feel free to give me any and all suggestions!

Ok, do I dust all of the crickets I feed it on those days? Or just one?

Okay, I will switch up the gut loading. And I dont use both of the heat lights, and it is a UVB light, sorry. And what is a better schedule for supplementing do you think?

Can you elaborate a bit more? I read it and I seem to be right on the money, except for the feeding.

Ooooh. I didn't know that about them! I have thought about doing the qtip thing, but he doesn't like being interacted with too much. But I might as well give it a try. Thank you!
