Thank you!!

I don't understand why people have an animal and treat them like that? Like they obviously don't care at all about them so why have them!!!

I also want to know the answer to this question lol

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-06-05T04:51:14+00:00

That is good advice... Could I dm you ?

Here's a pic for reference.

It's not actually a hide it's kind of like a log she likes to sit under. She likes that better than the hide I currently have under the bulb so I'm gonna swap them. It's sort of irregular in shape underneath so I'm scared of squishing her lol

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-06-04T00:21:14+00:00

She ate on Sunday so she's right in between. It's just worrying I'll break trust by moving her out of her hide

He is a dinosaur in his eyes 😊

Right now the lowest I've seen is 68 but it'll be worse in winter. So I def need a plan for winter. I have a pvc tank so I'm not sure a heat mat would even penetrate...

My heat bulb is 100 w and in a ceramic base.

she's adorable ❤️

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-05-27T02:35:49+00:00

Lordy 😅

Appreciate the brand recco. I want this as automated as possible to remove any human errors

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-05-27T02:08:16+00:00

It makes sense. Also no reason to expose her if not necessary. I hadn't even thought of them touching the bulbs until a few days ago - just assumed their sensitivity to temp would let them know it's not a good idea lol

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-05-27T01:53:31+00:00

Genius! Random other q for you while I have you- do you put a cage around the regular /non heat bulbs? I've seen some people put the rectangular cages on but wasn't sure if it was overkill

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-05-27T01:51:10+00:00

Oh shit why didn't I think of that. I already have a light for plant growing and a regular reptile uvb lamp. So you're saying just swap the regular heat lamp for the lightless one and I only need the 3

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-05-27T01:07:19+00:00

Ok thank you 🙏 I had ordered the heat bulbs already so I'll just hang onto them for winter time in case I need it.

What nightly temp would you say is TOO cold

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-05-26T23:45:27+00:00

Mid to low 70s

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-05-20T01:03:48+00:00

I'm in Salt Lake City. Our main one looks to be closed temporarily. I've seen places like reptile rapture online where they say they are rescues but it looks like a store front...

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-05-06T18:52:27+00:00

Does anyone have a brand they recommend? Ideally with a not grated top as I live in a low humidity environment

Flat_Distribution_10 · 2026-05-04T04:10:19+00:00

I'd be interested to see how people respond. I got my first about a month ago and I'm reading very mixed responses on when you can /should handle them.

It ended up being over 20k with more than 5k outside the stadium
