underdog125,
If you're using a 60 watt bulb, I would be worried about cooking the frog! I would recommend that you invest in a reptile thermometer (the round plastic kind, not the tape-like aquarium kind), and measure the air temp. It should be about 80-85 degrees F. 85F is pushing it, but that's OK. The air temp is what matters, the ground temp will likely be just fine if the air temp is. In the wild the ground isn't excessively warm or cold in normal circumstances, so don't worry. Aim for 80-85F and 50-70% humidity and you'll be golden. Good luck!

Evan
