Dear all,
I have a dilemma. My beardies cage is 100x50x50. He has a place to hide, a cave. With its 60 W heat lamp I noticed temperature is getting high. I decided to put a 25 W heat lamp in the cage, but still the coolest place in the cage is 84 Fahrenheit (the place he hides, his little cave). Is this temperature low enough? He seems to avoid the basking area, which seems to me he thinks its too warm there.
What is the best lowest temperature and what is the best highest temperature (under the basking area?)
By the way, he is 16 years old.
Thanks!
Anne
