Bdlvr, I really do not understand the reasoning behind basking for less time in unproductive (build on that). A dragon will bask for as long or as little as it needs too. You seem to be under the impression that dragons live to bask when in reality they bask to live.
Providing a wider temp gradient (and humidity gradient) is far more productive then dictating exact temps and humidity. It drives me crazy when you state exact temps (105) and then claim that is all they will need and will use. It seems like common sense to me to provide more choices (wider temps, wider humidity’s) and then simply let the animals themselves decide what is and what is not useful.
I witness my dragons using temps as high as 140 on a DAILY basis. I Also witness them using 100, 105, 110 etc. on a daily basis. Sorry for the rant I just don't understand why we owners should confine our husbandry to such a small box. Thanks.
