Si i am finally getting a baby vield in the next day or so after having most of the set up for a year now.So just want to double check out this stuff and make sure i got it right.

Rep-cal without d3 --most feedings
Rep-cal with d3 --2-3 times a month
Herptivite -- 2-3 times month

Cage temp 70 to 75 degrees

Basking temp 80 to 95 degrees

humidity 50 to 60 percent.

Are all these perimeters correct for a vield chem.
 
Keep your basking temp a little lower while he's young - more like low 80s. As he gets bigger, you can raise it to 85-90. I personally wouldn't have mine as high as 95, but basking temps are very much a matter of personal preference. Your cham's behavior will be the best indicator of the proper temps for him. Staying low in the cage, searching for cover, etc. can indicate that he is too hot. Dark colors, constant basking, and hanging upside down trying to get closer to the basking light can indicate that he is too cold.

Humidity can be higher than 50-60, but you want to keep it at a max of 85% in order to help prevent bacterial growth, respiratory problems, etc. Let your cage dry out completely or almost completely between mistings.
