The basking site usually stays around 105'F or so with a 30" T5 UVB directed on the center of the cage.

As far as diet goes he’s been getting a baby spring mix from the local organic market consisting of Red and Green Romaine, Green Oak, Red Leaf, Lollo Rosa, and Tango Lettuces, Green Chard, Mizuna, Arugula, Mache, Frisee, and Beet Tops everyday, with supplements of Peas, Carrots, Chick Peas, Lima Beans, and Green Beans Monday through Friday, and Cantaloupe, Peaches, Honeydew on Saturday. Then every once and a while he'll get a Commercial Rabbit feed that he can’t get enough of. Oh and on Monday his food is sprinkled a Vitamin/Calcium Powder. Unfortunately Dandelions are not available at the moment or else he would be getting those too.
