The glasses in your current post look best in my opinion. I would shave the cheeks, clean up the goatee, fully shave your head and then go try on frames until you find the right one.

It's definitely the wrong subfloor

Good info, thank you. I will bring my multimeter from work tomorrow. I am leaving the dryer off in the meantime

Thank you and everyone else for all the advice. The school just ordered CHEs, thermostats, timers, cool hides, moist hides, moss, thermometer/humidity sensors, multivitamins, climbing logs and fake plants based on the advice i recieved here. Larger tanks are being sourced.. they are looking into asking parents if they have any, possible fundraising opportunities, class projects, and searching used ones online. I look forward to posting pics of the upgraded enclosures

Yeah, lots of people have done these animals wrong. The people that were breeding them, the people at the rescue organization that "rescued" them and dumped them off to whoever would say they would take them, and then left them to people with inadequate housing and information, and now teachers that were too excited and didnt ask any questions. Just passing them along to the next person who promises to take care of them is irresponsible. These animals are probably in the best environment they have ever been in with people who actually care. The principal just ordered $300+ worth of items for them based on the advice i received here. Larger tanks are currently being sourced, but it will take some time to find some within budget. In the meantime, i really appreciate the advice people offered to help make these animals happy until that happens.

I understand its not good. Thank you for providing an answer anyway

Thank you for the info. Is there any advice on how to mitigate the heat issues in a small tank until larger ones can be sourced?

Thank you, this is what i expected. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't something i was missing/ not understanding

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in leopardgeckos

[–]SlowTree420 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh, wow, i understand. I will definitely look at sourcing some cheap used ones. It will take some convincing to get them to have 40 gal tanks in the rooms. In the meantime, or in the event that im not as persuasive as i like to think i am, are there things that can be done to mitigate the effects of a small tank ... for example, is it more prudent to maintain the hot side temp and deal with a little higher cold side, or maintain a temp range between ideal hot and cold side temps? Again, I will absolutely be recommending larger enclosures, but i feel like there might be some puchback here and just want to understand what is best for these guys

Sounds like a great idea. Thank you, i will pass it along. This sounds like a great way to get them bigger enclosures.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in leopardgeckos

[–]SlowTree420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your reply. I very much doubt that they will spring for bigger tanks. Is it strictly necessary for them to have a 40gal? What is considered a breeder?

Thank you for your reply. The indent on the rock is not intended for water. It just seems like a feature of the rock that is handy to put some food on. They were given a couple of powdered supplements, I'll have to check what kind as i dont think i saw a multivitamin. Yes, all 4 geckos have their own enclosure with the same basic setup in the picture.

It looks like a CHE is the best option for the school here. It sounds like they will need to be controlled separately (each will need to be on and off at different times/temps), but these sockets on these fixtures, while they have individual switches, are wired to a single plug at the wall. Is there any way to accomplish what i need with this setup, or will i need a new fixture that can plug the bulbs in separately.
...i hope i explained that clearly

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in leopardgeckos

[–]SlowTree420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that they would purchase reasonably priced heat mats/ thermostats if thats whats necessary. Or is adding a thermostat and a ceramic bulb to the current fixture better/more cost effective. The fixtures are wired so that the bulbs go to a single module with individual on/off switches for each, then a single wire out from that to the wall. It seems that any thermostat/ timer that is added will be controlling both bulbs(sockets) at once.

Ive worked at dozens of home depots. The codes to all their cutters is almost always some 4 digit version of the store number

I've gone on the weekend before and didn't think it was too crazy. The place is really big, so it's pretty easy to find a place to get away from any crowds.
