i know the set up i have right now is not ideal and too small i wasent expecting to come home with a big monitor!. my emegency set up is a 40 breeder. i have a reptisun 10.0 on him and a heat lamp. i use ceramic tile on the floor becuase it absorbs heat kinda like a heat rock without the risks. ambiant is running 78 and the basking area is at 97 under the light. i am working on a much better set up.hope to have it done by the week end. where i am located you cant just go and buy a decent set-up you pretty much have to make it. the new cage is going to be 4x8 and and allow for at a minimum of 1 1/2' of soil he can dig in. not sure what i can do right away for him to dig with the open wounds on his back and side. i dont want to make things worse for him. i also have a small kitty pan for water so he can soak in the water
