these are good temps for a juv/adult. A bit high for a baby but probably not an issue unless he screen climbs
What temps should I aim for? Both basking and ambiant?
IMO, I wouldn't go over 80 for a baby. ambient low 70's. For an adult high 70's low 80's basking. mid 70 ambient
Thak you
I just checked again and my basking temp is 79F and ambiant temp is 73F so thats good ???
These are perfectly fine temps for a 3 month old to an adult.... You are fine to do away with the basking fixture.
Perfect! Thank you, and you come through once again haha
He looks good. How is he eating?
I brought hin hone last night around 5pm, he drank and at right away...fed him 5 1/4" crickets this am and he ate then all, im going to feed him around 6-7....i habe him on 12p-12am light schedule to coinside with my work (I black out he room hes in during his sleep hours)
So you will want to provide at least 15 feeders a day. are you cup feeding?
Yea im feeding from a dish right now as hes still very shy and just getting used to his enclosure ... the breeder I got him from had them on a 10am-10pm schedule so theb2 hour difference is less harsh ..... you have it from 8:30-8:30?
Ok good. Just checking. I don't like free feeding harder with babies to know what they are actually eating that way. My boys are on a 7:30-6:30 schedule.
You tong feed?
No, I don't happen to believe in using tongs. I have seen too many chams come through with injuries to their tongue due to hitting the tongs and error with keeper pulling back or the tong getting yanked back into the mouth. These situations can cause permanent damage. I hand feed, cup feed, and use a feeder run for my baby.
Thank you very much
