1st Babies. Question about heat/humidity

assie2071 Jan 18, 2006 01:35 PM

I will be getting my first hatchlings tomorrow and I wanted to make sure everything is okay for them.
I currently have the hunidity at about 43% and the temp grad. from 80-90. I was wonderig if all that's okay or if I should tweak it a little before they get here.

I'd lower the temperature gradient to the upper 80s on the warm side and the mid 70s on the cooler side. I would also bump up the humidity to around 60-65%.

That is a very pretty snow. it is also extremely light in color on the pinks. Hope was a very bright little girl.
