Hello everyone, i have realized that my yearling hermann has been basking alot recently like maybe 5-6 hours a day. I looked it up and was confused becuse everyone said that it could be becuse of low temps but his temps are good, ambinent 76-78 warm area 83-84, basking 90-95. But i now realized today that the reason he has been basking so much is likely becuse of over misting and the water used to mist being to cold. So i am going to start misting less and when i do mist make sure the water i use is warm and also try and mist more on the plants and grass in his enclosure instead of the substarte to avoid the substate getting so cold and wet which as i implied i think is the reason for the recent increse in basking.
He has no signs of a URI or anything like that and is completely healty. I know this since i went to a vet for a checkup and x-ray and everything seemed very good with him.
