okay this is the deal with my set up.



I have 2 lights day/night (just for viewing) and an under tank heater all are on timers. I leave for work before day light I have a lot of window so I open the blinds to make use of the natural like. The under tank heater turns off 3 mintes after the day light comes on at 7:30am. The night heat lamp turns on 3 minutes before before the day heat lamp goes off at 5:30. The under tank heater comes on 10 minutes before the night heat lamp goes off at 12am. The temp reading in the tank during the day can range from 85-95 at night it range from 75-80.



I have carpet with a double layer on the side that the under tank heater is on. This does two things limits any possible problems and makes a quick poop clean up between my bi weekly cleaning of the tank.



I have a shed box and 2 hides one hide is in the center of the tank and the next is at the far end of the tank.



water, food and call dish......



AS far as food the bulk of his diet is crickets and mealworms. I throw in a waxworm one in a while. I give him 2 pinkies every 2 weeks (boy does he love them)



He eats well doesn't turn down food unless full he is active so i'm not worried about that. I have seem him breed so I know he is okay in that department. His offsring looks great and eats like babe so... I'm more looking at his color being that i have seen him look better. A few months ago him to the vet for a nonrelated issue I ask the vet and they couldn't find anything wrong with him.
