>>At night the warm side of the tank drops to 75 if I turn off the light so I haven't been turning it off but she buries herself in the dirt and under her log to get sleep where there is the undertank heating pad.Do you think I can turn the lamp off at night?

Tammy-

Yes, you can and should turn the light off at night. They need the cooler night temps to rest and recharge. Good night temps are mid 60s to mid 70s. Some go even cooler. If the temps are too high all the time, the constant stress will eventually make them susceptible to disease and parasites.

I'm glad you got rid of the heat rock! Heat rock = disaster. I hope her feet improve now. Poor thing looks uncomfortable.
