Yes sure I will attatch pictures now. I’ve ordered some more wood and leaves to give him better areas to climb. I also ordered some new light fixtures so that the uvb can spread throughout the whole enclosure
The coil is no good please return it--- they are inadequate- you want a long tube fixture like a 24" zoo med w/ a 22" reptisun 10.0 T 5 bulb this fixture comes w/ a 5.0 bulb keep it for a back up distance and placement is different from the 10.0 - or this one a 24" Arcadia pro T 5 / a 12% bulb you can find these on www.pangeareptiles.com - please get 2 zoo med digital probe thermometers- correct basking temps you want surface basking temps 105-110 -- the basking bulb needs to be a CLEAR bright white bulb like a Exo Terra intense or a Zoo Med repti basking bulb-- the IR gun is good but it will not read off a hammock- you need the probe thermometer-- please No more meal worms the can cause impaction on babies the exo skeleton is too harsh on babies stomachs- he needs to be started on salads now I can post a website for that but please get the probes and the uvb asap- he won't eat w/ out proper lighting and temps-- when you get the uvb please post on here I will help you get it set up distance and placement is crucial your screen will determine where it goes
Thank you both very much. I do have an issue tho. If I were to order the tube light it wont arrive for a couple days and his current uvb bulb has been broken. Should I still cancel the delivery order for the ones I bought or use them until the tube comes? I also have a 40 gallon enclosure for him as he’s a baby but I’ll definitely upgrade in about 9-12 months when he’s older to a 75 or 110 gallon. I have these gauges but I decided not to use them would they work better than the govee one I have now ?
No on the gauges they give ambient temps only - please don't use the uvb coil return it--- get the long tube fixture ordered ASAP - you can call your reptile stores and see if they carry in store what was posted-- ask them exactly what they have do not let them sell you something else-
Thank you I’m about to bike to my pet store and see if they have it. what do you recommend for food? I’ve been giving him crickets since he came but he rarely ate them. I feed him a salad every morning thst he rarely touches that includes collard greens, bell peppers, and butternut squash.
The diet your feeding is good but will not eat or eat very little w/ out proper basking temps and uvb that is what controls the overall health and behavior of the dragon - once that is corrected everything else will fall into place
Let me know what you find at the store
