    Tucker finally ate some cottle bone. He has been nibbling on it all day. I have been feeding him once a day and some times a small snack while sun bathing. Is this not enough? He acts hungry all the time. When I put him in the yard he walks around eating grass and weeds. Should I feed him...

    If I were to pick between one of the two to order... which would be best between these two for humidity control.

    Here are some pictures from Saturdays yard time. Over all he was out in the yard wondering around for 2 hours. I would walk out and set him half way out in the yard and he would always walk over to me sitting by the dog pen. He kept trying to walk right up to the fence. He is doing amazing...

    Tucker is doing amazing. We battled RI for the first week but now he shows no signs of it and is healthy as a horse. Here is a picture of him in the yard Saturday. He walked half way across the yard several times.

    Mine does say Professional blend.... bottom says CYPRESS MULCH. I can not find any thing on the bag with any other ingredients. Should I be changing it?

    Its also goi That's a good idea! I think I will do both on and record on the same sheet. I will also continue to do the pictures and marking the 30" board. Its going to be 75 here today. would it be ok if I took him out to get some sun in the yard so he can explore? Supposed to be sunny...

    I found a scale in the shed. Tucker weighs 90 grams. How often do you guys weigh in? once a week to monitor growth?? just see everyone putting their weights up and figured I would to. lol

    Ok I was stressing over the lack of Sun. Walmart didn't have the bulb any way. It should be sunny again in a few days.

    So the local walmart most likely has that Sylvania 100 watt mercury vapor bulb.... does it have none of the same values? I could have one of those in the morning on my way home from work. No good at all? would sure beat waiting a week for one

    Will a SYLVANIA 100 watt mercury vapor bulb work? I see them on ebay for 12.95. They have frosted or clear. Which is best? this what I need?

    The biggest problem is my limitations here in Kansas.... 100 miles from any pet store. The mulch was my only choice unless I order stuff offline. His basking spot is 100. Still raise temps? aim for what?

    What are thoughts on this bulb? (Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 Desert UVB Mini Compact Fluorescent Lamp) I still plan to bask him in the unfiltered sun light atleast 1/2 hour a day. Only problem is its been rainy here for 2 days so he has got zero uvb. If this lamp would be ok I would plan to use...

    Awesome. I read some. I will read the entire thread when I get a chance. Here are some pictures of how it is right now. The hanging light has the ceramic heater in it. I turn the light off at night so it is dark. He burrowed down in his house clear to the bottom. does this mean its to...

    He isn't walking around in there yet but I like the looks of it. I defiantly think having his house surrounded like that will make a perfect hiding spot. It has Spanish moss on the floor of the house that is damp. I also moved him to my work bench so I can sit and watch him without having to...

    Ok thank you. I am getting ready to change it all around now. I will post pictures when I am done. I have cut calcium back to every 3 days and I only do Mazuri every two or three days. He has been getting grass and weed mix 90% now. I only use romaine and cucumber as snack to keep him in...
