I have been having a hell of a time getting the temps in my closed chamber to stabilize, and I think I found the solution. I have the basking spot on a timer and set it to come on periodically throughout the day. It comes on at 9:30 same as the uvb tube, but then I have it stay on for 30 min and then off for 60, then on for 30, off 60, etc. Is this ok? It's gettin the basking to the mid 90s where I want but it's not on long enough to heat the whole thing too much. Will this be ok? Or does she need a basking spot constantly throughout the day? I know I can get thermostat but that's not in the budget for a while, gotta make due with what I have for now.
