how do I lower the human in my new 4x2x2 enclosure it started out fine but recently it’s soaring at 37 % and I don’t know what to do, it’s currently 75 degrees.
Try taking out the water bowl for a bit if there is one.. if your dragon drinks from that then maybe put it back in when humidity is ok. Have you ever seen your beardie drinking from the bowl? Is the bowl under or near the basking bulb?
My Bearded is a three year old male and I’ve only had for a month and never see him drinking, I do keep a very small amount just in case but I’ll remove it temporarily and no water is on the cool side with food dish. I keep the basking spot at 95 and the cool side stays about 80 and at night my emitter keeps the enclosure about 80. I have seen or heard about this but think it might work.. what if I use a gun safe dehumidifier,not the electric type that puts off heat but the moisture absorption type
37% humidity is not bad in fact its good ---- I have a hydrometer in my tank and its reading the same -- so its moderate-- its when the humidity gets to 65% or higher is when you need to worry about it -- or so I have been told--

I’m currently using a 75 w basking but going to switch back to the 100 or higher I noticed lower humidity using a higher watt bulb. Currently it’s 100 at the basking 78 on the cool side and humidity is better at 28 so that seems to do it for now
The humidity is fine--- you need to follow your basking temps and the cool side of the tank --- my humidity in my tank can sometimes go as high as 45% at nite and drop after all he lights are turned on during the day --- it gets really humid where I live so we have a dehumidifier in the summer for the house- you dont want to cook your dragon trying to get the humidity out of the tank --

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
