Substrates & Changing It Out

[AHBD]

Hey there, it sounds like the new baby is doing well and you're getting a lot of things squared away with Karrie's help. If I can make a suggestion, put the basking bulb and CHE on one side of the screen and pull your uvb bar closer to the middle on the other side rather than all the way to the back. That way she'll get better uvb exposure.

Yes ! The babies appetite improved a bunch since that new UVB went in big boy (I think boy!) ate 15 crickets today!!!! Huuuge improvement ? and healthy poops! Has pooped 3x in the 5 days they’ve been home!) now, I do not have a CHE because my house temp is rather on the warm side although it is winter. We have to keep the heat high bc we live in a one bedroom apartment in Indiana. Lol. So do you think it’s needed? I haven’t seen the temp go lower than 70-75 at night. Thank you both for your help!

Also, my basking area heat has improved since I changed to proper lights and such. But it’s sitting at about 109.9-110. I am keeping an eye on the temp. She’s seeming to love it haha basking At the moment.

Good to hear that she's eating so well ! And no CHE at night if your house is that warm. I wasn't sure if you were using it along with the basking bulb to keep the temps. up, forgot if that was the case.
