thanks for the info on sand.not heard about putting slate in the tank but makes sense.
reacently when i get rex out he will just snuggle in to me and go to sleep,iv started cuddling him up in a blanket to make sure he is warm enough,and he will sleep on me for a good few hours,i can do anything and he wont wake up,he loves it,but he never sleeps in his tank,he has got a dark spot ,a cave he can go into but he doesnt use it,i hope im not making mistakes with his lighting,im following the pet shop mans advice but not sure what to beleive anymore.he seems healthy,happy,lively so thats good.but he used to run around when he would come out.iv heard about a type of hybernation they go into. :shock: again i heard this online,so if anyone can shed light on this that would be great. :study: no pun intended :lol:
