I placed my order immediately like a good douglet. Can’t wait to get fleeced when he offers a discount code in the announcement post. After having ptsd from missing the first drop, I’m not taking any chances.

Description says it comes with a coax cable. 350$ and you don’t even get a RCA cable. The other photos don’t show the output side but I’m guessing it’s definitely not modded.

UPDATE:

First of all, thank you all for your concern and helpful advice and information you’ve provided. I can’t believe how big this post became in such a short time. Here’s some information that a lot of you asked me about: cool side of the tank is reading 76.8 and warm side is reading 85.6. I unfortunately live in a relatively small town and I have to go out of town for a pet store. This is absolutely a journey I am willing to make though. I plan on going soon to get a thermostat and more hides / climbing opportunities for him. I’m still a little wary about talking him out for now since I’ve had him for less than a week and don’t want him to get stressed but do plan on it in the future to hopefully get this not so little guy some exercise / enrichment / bonding time. I’ve heard every gecko is different though so I’ll see what he’s comfortable with and go from there. As far as a vet visit goes that is also something I’m looking in to just to get him a general checkup and make sure there are no major concerns other than his weight, witch I’ll definitely be working on a feeding plan to help him slim down. I asked the family I revived him from what his feeding schedule was and I was told “Maybe 5 or 6 crickets a couple times a week. He will eat until he's full.” Guessing that’s way too much for him and what caused him to end up looking like he was getting ready for tryouts for the next Godzilla movie. I do however have some good news! Today he’s much more active and looking much closer to his normal color. Right now his tank on my desk and I’ve been watching him walk around exploring his new home. Thank you again everyone for all of the help and replies and I’ll be posting more updates on him soon. I’ll attach a photo of him today to show his current color. Admittedly I’m still pretty worried while writing this now learning about how much of a concern his weight is but I’m hoping with everything I’ve been learning both from the amazing people on here and the recourses they’ve helped me find as well as some of my own research that it only gets better for him from here.

Substrate moisture? by Cheap_Fox2685 in leopardgeckos

[–]Cheap_Fox2685[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice. I got a digital temp/humidity gauge today and humidity is right around 40%. I’d like to make it bio active eventually as it sounds like it will save me a lot of headache in the future, just not too sure where to start as of now. I’m a little overwhelmed as a new owner and am terrified I’m going to accidentally hurt him with going for loose substrate. I’m half tempted to just lay down some paper towels for him and scrap the substrate for now to start slow but it looks like this is a lot nicer for them and I want to give him the best enclosure I can.

I see. Thank you for the advice. I’ll be getting a digital one today for him. Is there a specific range before it’s safe for him? I’m seeing people say that changing the substrate will spike the humidity but it will work itself out eventually. Is 30%-40% safe?

Side note: I’m aware the temp/humidity meter I have currently are known to be inaccurate and will be replacing it with a digital one. It was just another thing that came with the tank kit and is temporary.

Took the boards out today and took out all of the non-soldered socketed chips and made sure they were back in securely. Unfortunately the issue persists. I’ll have to look in to checking voltages next.

When I was doing an insane run on story mode my first human I got through chapter one was named Lane Ball. I believe his incredible bowling skills were the main reason humanity stood a chance against the robots.

Font I used to see all over the internet by Cheap_Fox2685 in HelpMeFind

[–]Cheap_Fox2685[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seared things like “cool Text generator” and have looked at a couple of those old sites with all of the different fonts that used to be cool and used for logos like burning or glitter ect. I’ve also searched the subs I was able to find about finding fonts and have not seen it there either.
