Rio, a cherry head red foot, just moved into his new house over the weekend.
The enclosure is 4x2.
There is a CHE for heat which is on a thermostat to ensure no less than 80F at all times.
The temperature has been 80-86F at all times so far.
The humidity on one end has been around 83%, on the other end around 70-80%.
There is a fogger in there, and I have pointed the fogger more towards the middle so that both areas get even humidity.
The substrate is reptibark with cypress mulch around the edges to keep in the humidity and close any gaps between the tent and the wooden box.
The new light just came and I am not quite sure if it is the right one after all because it will spread along almost the entire enclosure
It is a 34inch T5 HO Arcadia D3 forest 39W 6% UVB to replace the currently used MVB light.
Is this too much UVB?
Keep in mind, Rio is a 5 year old cherry head, that weighs a whopping 266g or so (60g up since we got him in July!) and has MBD.
