I find this all very interesting! So interesting in fact that I had decided last night that I would try adding a small watt bulb to the cage and see what happens with it. This morning I picked up a package of Clear Sylvania 25 watt bulbs from my Lowe's in the area. I'm going to see what effects this will have on digestion and overall energy of my trio. I normally keep my house at 78 degrees. The cage is in the basement, which makes temps a few degrees cooler than upstairs. It generally runs about 72 degrees and yesterday I noticed that the dragons weren't as mobile as maybe they should be. So I decided that adding this heat can't hurt. And it may improve their coloration during the day.

I've noticed Jobi that your hatchlings are a nice shade of green, can you attribute this to the added heat? Hopefully this works to speed these guys up a bit, and maybe my little runt will start to gain some size to her!
