Re: Bad Shed

Wow. What is the ambiant temp of the room he is in? I heat mine with a small heat mat. The lights dry out your viv. In the mean time put his water dish right under the lights. This will evaporate the water and up the humidity. Cover as much of the screen top as possible to keep the moisture in. Is your heat mat on a thermostat? If so how often is it on? If it shuts off when the lights are on try killing the lights for one day and see what the temps are. Even a bit low won't kill him in just one day to try. Something is not adding up. Using lights for heating snakes is a bit taboo in most cases. Use one heat source only as well.
