Now the summer is coming, my mom has gotten back into her habit of making the temperatures in the house fluctuate like mad. I'm talking almost 15 degree differences based on her mood. Sometimes she likes 62 and other time 75 still isn't warm enough for her. As a result Zeke's basking spot is going from about 92-104. I check on him every few hours and keep trying to adjust the temp to get it right, but the temperature in the house is changing so often I can't keep his basking spot at 100 no matter how hard I try. Not to mention that I'm in and out of the house for work and school and can't babysit the temps all day.
Then today Zeke's poo had three undigested worms in it. Completely undigested. I'm clearly not managing to keep the temps where they need to be and my mother won't change anything. So I need to figure out how to get his basking spot where it needs to be. This morning it was hovering around 94 and I got back from the movies to find it at 102! I am giving the temps at least 45 minutes to register before I start messing with the lights again. In the end I seem to be fighting a losing battle and I don't know what to do. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
