bulbs dry out the air and contribute to low humidity.

Consider cypress mulch.

use a UTH or heat tape to provide belly heat - they need belly heat. With this you can then add a second water dish on top of the uth that will increase humidity. Best bet might be to add a humid hide to the warm side, then you don't have to worry about humidity in the rest of the cage. There are posts below with other ideas - check them out.

Temps should be: warm = 90-95, cool 80-85
drop in temps at night not needed, but if they do go no lower than 75 on the cool side and make sure there is still a difference of 5-10 degrees between the two sides.
