I just adopted a russian a few days ago and I have him in a 6x4 closed chamber. At one end I have the CHE with his hide under it and at the other end I have a 100 watt MVB. Will this be enough light for him? I have another socket available in the center - should I get another 100 watt UV bulb for more light?
Also about what temp should I keep it at night? I have the CHE hooked up to a thermostat. Bulb on 12 hrs and off 12 hrs correct? One more question, what temp should he be in during the day?
I've let him out of his chamber for some supervised time in the yard but he just burroughs himself in the grass and stays there. Does walk around or graze? Our temps here in San Antonio are still pretty mild, low 70s during the day and low 60s at night. We have his closed chamber on our covered patio.
