Hi all!



Camoflage is doing great, growing, feeding, exploring as usual. We have him on coconut fiber dirt (it's quite fine, actually), and we keep it damp except for the part directly over the heat sourse. We also just changed him from a 11x13" glass baking dish for drinking to a LARGE cat pan (covers almost 1/4 of the 75gal he's in right now!) and he's only left the pan on Sunday to heat up - all day, at least, he's soaking! (We switched him because he tried fitting his 8' of body into the little baking dish... only 1/3" of him fit in there, and the rest was directly over the dish)



No mites, the room is likely around 55% humidity on average durring the whole day, and with damp substrate and NO symptoms of near-shed or other illnesses (that I can tell), I don't have a clue for why he's been in his bowl for about a WEEK now.



Of course, he might be coming out at night, but I don't think the substrate is getting disturbed at night...



Thanks for whatevery suggestions you might have - As soon as we move, Tony is going to get his cage built and the young RTBs will get the 75gal until their cage is built... And then the dumerils will get it until they are almost full grown and need a 75gal each... THEN it will be perfect for a trio of bearded dragons. I love getting this all planned out - these critters are so much fun to own and watch....
