any good care sheets?

aimee_s Nov 21, 2003 08:19 PM

hi all,

sorry for bugging - but does anyone have a really good care sheet link? i've been searching google and most care sheets are pretty similar or really short. i wanna know a lot more to extend their captive life with me ( hehe) - i also wanna keep taking care of herps

temps & humidity are what i pretty much have down - as well as handling, substrate, etc. one of my main questions is - do they need any hides? or will all the branches and plants be enough? they dont need UTH's right? if the temps and humidity are regulated by a red bulb and misting? also day/night schedules will be kept by a low wattage bulb or the light in my room from the window. sorry again all, thanks!

take care, i appreciate the help

Dont use UTH's. Cresteds are arboreal, and it would be useless. Besides, they like it cool anyway. As for hides, if you have enough branches and plants, you dont need any. Mine just sleep on the plants leaves (pothos, sansevieria, and bromeliads are what i use).

One of the best caresheets ive seen:
