Hello everyone and thanks for reading this. I read some of the similar threads but didn't get my exact questions answered.
My brother built a very large wooden, open enclosure for my RF its 6L x Hw enclosure made of plywood . It has a hide box in the corner that is has a plywood cover.
She is about 8" long and up till now was in a terrarium where it was easy to keep the temp and humidity around 80.
How do I keep it humid in an open environment? Is spraying her and the substrate a few times a day good enough? I kept the substrate wet in her terrarium but can't do that with this because it will leak.
What about heat? Should I have several heat lamps in various locations or all in one place?
As for UVB I was going to mount the light along the edge, but maybe I should build something so it can be more centered?
She spent last night in her hide box and felt cool to me in the morning.
I love her so much, I want the best possible environment but am stressed out about how to work with this otherwise awesome new home for her.
Thank you so much!!!!
