I have a 66 quart tote it clear I cut a big portion out of the lid I use che on top for heat (100)watt I closed of more of the top with card board and still left me opening around the dome 2 on each side of dome there are between 2-3 in. In size I can get temp up to 85-to 90 but I cant maintain humidity temp reach 91 over with humidity went down to 10 I have a hole orange,water chrystal even, put a small container with water in it with a lid with holes in it. I can get by most it but that only last for a short time. I plan on putting styrofoam around all sides that will darken it and hold more heat but I cant seem to make any humidity any help would be appreciated

I've found that they do OK with low humidity but 10% seems especially low. You might want to put a small humidifier near the bin to help bring that up a bit. The CHE will dry the air out a lot too so maybe leave that off for a bit and see how they do trading some heat for some humidity.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
