Hey everyone! I just had a couple questions about my enclosure. Here is what I have -
29g Long aquarium - yes i know it's a bit too small for a full grown but we will get a bigger tank for her soon.
Exo-terra 125 Watt MVB
UTH heater
no water dish, she simply ignores it
Alfalfa pellets (I haven't seen these mentioned anywhere as far as pros or cons)
Her basking temps are about 105-107 (measured w/ a digital probe), cool side is 80 ish (though she's NEVER over there. She's always either on her basking spot, or under it.)
So here are my enclosure questions - After browsing the site here, it seems that MVB lights are not recommended. Should I look into replacing my set up entirely soon?
Also, what are the thoughts on Alfalfa pellets as substrate?
And then my non enclosure questions
Is it normal that she only touches her greens if she hasn't had roaches/crickets in over a day?
She's just under 10 inches long,the store said she would be 3-4 months old (just this past weekend they said that), but then she seems small to me?
