You need to get the uvb directly above her from the pic it looks like she cannot get underneath it - distance 8-10 inchesHere's the setup.
Basking spot is about 100 degrees. 90 degrees ambient temperature on the basking side. Cool side is 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
Uvb tube reptisun 10.0 T5 HO with reflector is about 12 1/2 inches from basking spot ( The temple thing in the middle) on top of fine mesh! And the closest she can get to the uvb light is about 7 inches where her cave is.
Put a piece of decor under it- she will go sit under it-- or place the uvb vertical next to basking lampHow?
Well that cave in the back she can get as close to 7 inches to the uvb light at the corner of the cave. Will that suffice? Cause that whole cave area has different heights that can get close as 7 inches to the light.Put a piece of decor under it- she will go sit under it-- or place the uvb vertical next to basking lamp
It should does she go there to bask? That's the main thingWell that cave in the back she can get as close to 7 inches to the uvb light at the corner of the cave. Will that suffice? Cause that whole cave area has different heights that can get close as 7 inches to the light.
No she never even gets out of her cave period. Like she stays in there all day , the only time she bask is when I take her outside physically or I physically move her to the basking spot in the enclosure. And even then she stays there for 10 mins max, it's like she brumating but she's been doing this for a while. Also when I feed her she'll eat but then she goes back in her cave without digesting it, so I take her outside to warm up for about 30 mins to digest what she just ate.It should does she go there to bask?

Is she pooping? Are the bugs coming out digested?No she never even gets out of her cave period.

Only time she poops is when I give her a bath. And no I don't see bugs in the poop.Is she pooping? Are the bugs coming out digested?
I am at a loss too- she's getting the digestion going by you taking her outside- maybe that's why she's not basking cuz she's getting enough out there-- gonna have some one else look at your postOnly time she poops is when I give her a bath. And no I don't see bugs in the poop.
So after measuring the top part of the cave to the uvb light AGAIN, the closest she can get to the uvb is 8 and half inches, while the lowest she can get to the uvb light is about 15 inches ( which is at the very bottom of the cave. And the basking spot is 13 and a half to the uvb light running diagonal. I'm asking again because the measurements I ran were a little inaccurate. Is this distance ok, will she get good uvb exposure?I am at a loss too- she's getting the digestion going by you taking her outside- maybe that's why she's not basking cuz she's getting enough out there-- gonna have some one else look at your post

What do her poops look like? Are they good? Yes the measurements are good - as long as she has that variable - the 15 is going to be too far away w/ it on the screen but the 8 1/2 is good - its what you want - what does she do when shes outside?So after measuring the top part of the cave to the uvb light AGAIN, the closest she can get to the uvb is 8 and half inches, while the lowest she can get to the uvb light is about 15 inches ( which is at the very bottom of the cave.

She actually just pooped about an hour ago in the bath and they looked fine nothing out of the ordinary, and she doesn't really do anything she just kinda stays basking a one spot, and after a while she'll jump from my shoulder to the back of the pool chair and stay there.What do her poops look like?
