[QUOTE="Lumber girl, post: 2015186, member: 117502"] So I replaced the wonky temperature probe and had to adjust all the lighting again. It was too hot. Now we've got these readings: Cool side 78.3⁰F Warm area 86.2⁰F Basking area 110⁰F I've attached a picture-don't mind the little bit of a mess where he ran through the salad (still not eating anything). I'll offer him more salad and crickets today, but I might feed him some repashy beardie buffet as a slurry with a syringe if he's still not showing interest. I did this a few days ago and can say this stuff smells so bad from going in to coming out the other end. That's black construction paper around the sides and back where the glare was causing behavior issues. Not sure what else to do about that. I did reach out to the manufacturer and can buy clear panes to replace the black sides and back but it's pricey... I decided to not have the sandstone rock in there any more. It was getting too hot. The log-type hide (bigger one in the pic) was reaching 125⁰F under the basking bulbs, so the small one that's actually wood is under the basking bulbs now. I can't move the light fixture much higher so it's not too hot, and we really can't put any taller basking furniture in without it being far too warm. I assume this is where we would get lower wattage basking bulbs? There are two 75w arcadia bulbs in there now. Any suggestions on what to ask the vet when we go on Tuesday? I've never been to an exotics/herp vet so I have no clue what to expect. I also had no clue that it's so hard to find someone who will take an animal for a first visit as a sick visit. [/QUOTE]
