Ive been hard at work building a new indoor enclosure for our soon arriving russian baby. Weve used coconut substrate and have placed numerous rocks and artificial plants to ensure a happy and fun home. We bought the Zoo Med Power Sun mercury vapor bulb which is UVA, UVB & heat all in one. However...since putting it all together, ive only been getting reading of 75* on the thermometer and also only at 40* on the humidity. I know these arent high enough on either SO what do i need to do to fix this to ensure proper temp & humidity before our new baby arrives??? Help Please!!

You might need to lower the light. How far above the enclosure do you have it? I believe on the box there is a recommended height. Russians don't need as high a humidity as some others, I think around 50% is good. You may need to cover 1/2 - 3/4 of the enclosure for both heat and humidity.
