Ok so now I have day time temps at 85F all the way at eh back of the cage and right at the light its now 120F Please see the image below. My lights are facing sidways they are not on the top of the enclosure. Shadow seems to like it on the hot side as she spends a lot of time in front of the lights. You will also note there is 1/4 wire between her and the light so she cant get burned. My night time temps are About 80F furthest away from the lights and right at the light the temp is 115F. That should be ok huh? I know the 120 day and 115 night is fairly hot but keep in mind she can excape to 85 day and 80 night temps if the higher are to high. One other thing. She isnt sneezing or weezing or brithing with opend mouth or anything. Every now and then while holding her I may hear a little click from the nose or see a little bubble pop from one of her nostrals. Its hard to explain unless you see it but the mouth opening I think is more of an agresion behavoir. She will slightly open her mouth showing her teeth if I touch her head light peting from between the eyes moving back. Today is however the first time she has ever done this. Normaly you can like I said give her a big kiss on the lips and she wouldnt even flinch. Maybe I kissed her to much? LOL Anyway thanks a million, let me know if those temps sound good.
