[QUOTE="RachelG, post: 2036099, member: 89494"] On October 2nd we lost our beloved 9 year old beardie Lenny. It's been awful, but that's in another post. Yesterday we welcomed baby beardie Frank. Frank came home in what was Lenny's carseat/travel tank, a 20 gal that can be strapped in for travel. The idea was that a new baby would move into the custom lizard mansion I'd built for Lenny... but I am having second thoughts. 😬 I'm not sure if it's because the adult tank IS too big or otherwise unsuitable, or if I'm just in my head about it being Lenny's tank. Of course, the travel tank, viv and all its contents have been washed, scrubbed, steam sanitized and f10 fogged (x2), so disease transmission is not a concern. I made a few adjustments to the lights (a little lower, so Frank could bask in a hotter spot) and I removed a decorative plant because I worried he'd eat it. The temps on the basking side have surfaces from 97-111 degrees, middle temps are 90-83, and the lowest temp on the cool side is 81. The hammocks are sewn on each time they're washed, and are not at risk of falling or becoming detached from their anchor points. All that said... Is the highest platform too high for a baby? Are the hammocks going to snag him? Are the hides too big and not cozy enough? Basically, can Frank move in? Please weigh in with any thoughts or suggestions! I promise I'll take everything in a constructive manner! [/QUOTE]
