i feed him a varied diet of kingworms fish,raw ground beef raw ground turkey very rarely a pinkie mouse. he doesn't have a super apitite, he eats prolly every other day the turkey and talapia have herpivite calcium suppliment which is added maybe 2-3 times a week. i can't feed crickets as they escape his enclosure. once a week he gets a multivitamin, i believe it is repcal or something i don't remember as it's in a salt shaker now.

pic of his his enclosure:

i'm not sure of the ambient air temps, as every thermometer i have seems to break or be innacurate i use a temp gun for surface temps,
basking site hits 110 surface temp during the day
coolside surface temp is about 75-79
the bulb is a mercury vapor providing uvb and heat only thing between the light and the lizard is 1" bars and maybe 10-12" from the surface.

50-60% humidity
