It seems you have offered a decent temperature range. Now for the next step. I am not a caresheet person. The reason is, a caresheet will suggest a range like you mentioned. Once you understand the range then it becomes something else. I call it a usable range. That is, if the temps are such they don't use them, then those temps are as good as not being offered.

Offering a usable range is much more difficult and takes trial and error.

You mention humidity. A range of 50% to 70%. I never measured humidity in cages. I apply humidity based on the behavior of the monitors.

For instance, when I wet down/spray down/
add moisture I always leave dry areas so the monitors have a choice.

Back to you. Once you have done your homework, then it becomes a problem between you and your vet. As I would hope no one will offer medical advice without seeing the patient or the cage. Cheers
