Another lighting question.... The uvb tube need to be 6 to 8 inches above her highest basking spot? Is that right? Also I've been using a CHE all day and night long, is this bad? Should I just be using it at night time? Do I need a bright basking light for day combined with uvb?

A basking light is required for proper food digestion and the CHE should only be used if needed to get the appropriate temps. Basking area between 100 - 110, cool side around 85, and an overall ambient of about 95. At night time it's safe for the temps to drop as low as 65.

Sir Henry the dragon
Looking for his dragon girl
Ventures out in to the wide world
His hopes are up but as you can see
There is no dragon girl for Sir Henry
A light bulb goes off and he takes mom aside
Could you perchance get me a mail order bride ?
