Alright. Built a cage, the sides a melamine with a coating. The top and bottom are plywood with a small layer of paint. I have 2 2x10 inch vents and a plexiglass front. I am using a lavalamp bulb as a heatsource. Is the bulb to bright? the humidity is reading 24 in the cool part 34 in the warm part. The cage is about 87 degrees all over. Now the part I want to fix right now is humidity. Should I spray everyday? theres about 10 sheets of newspaper down. I already sprayed once but didn't change the levels. I will spray again and get back to you on the levels. But any tips on humidity or heat would be nice...

Thanks
Owen

PS I have a bulb that prudces less heat, basking spot of about 86 degrees and cool spot of about 76....
