Can get some information on things about chuckwakllas. I know the temperature, basking spot 110 and warm side is in the 80s cool side is 75-80. I do need to know about night time temperatures. I would like to know if alfalfa bedding is fine. I was told it was but does anyone have any cons of it. I can get some more sand if necessary. I got a piece of drift wood, which he hangs out on and a shelter. Should I get more rocks? Can I get them from outside my house or at a petstore. I was also told to get a granite slab and make a platform but I think that would be very costly and it could wreck the custom enclosure. I understand the size of a enclosure right now he is little and in a smaller enclosure. Once he starts to eat and gets a little older I will move him into a 4 by 2. I could order it at anytime. If there is anything important I need to know or anything else you feel like telling me please do so. I know the foods she/he should be fed, thanks to rosebud on here. I also want to make sure though that crickets or any other insect is not good for them and shouldn't be fed or it can be? I may need to make a camera to observe if he is eating. I think I can do that.
