The uvb lightbulbs are so incredibly expensive, I bring my Ig outside with me often and I know thats not enough but is there any thing else I could use to keep her/him healthy? I heard about these liquid drops/ powders that have the vitamins it'd be getting from those bulbs, and I read that blacklights emit uvb as well? I'll be saving up for one either way but I was just wondering what I could use in the meantime.
And.... I got Io two days ago at herpeton it's very young abouttttt...... 3 inches maybe stv healthy, trusting, but she does the salt sneezing very often I was wondering if I should be concerned?

And... I was wondering if anyone's gotten salmanella from their pet iggys before? whats it like etc etc....

I just know that I've been getting progressively more nauseus since I've gotten Io despite frequent hand washing : /
