So it's been about a week now that I've had my dragon. I set up the enclosure months before he arrived to make sure I had temps and humidity right, but I'm starting to have trouble again.
I live in the lower 3rd of Alabama. It's naturally very humid here. It is now tornado season and we have severe weather all week.
Usually, the tank sits at 45ish during the day, and climbs close to 50 at night. But this morning when I turned his lights on it was up to 60.
I have one of those Eva-Dry bead dehumidifiers in his enclosure and an electric dehumidifier that sits directly under it. I have a fan blowing directly into the enclosure vents.
I'm out of ideas for how to get the humidity down. We will be in tornado season until the end of spring, so I expect the natural humidity will continue to be difficult until early summer.
Anyway, if there are any keepers that also live in the southeast, I would love some tips on getting this humidity right.
