Re: Some beginners questions for a Red-Tail Boa
Ok so I can't really afford those heat panels.. Sorry but it's just a bit too much right now. But I think I can work with the heat lamps, the humidity rarely goes below 60 and is often 70 all day after spraying, but wetness causes RI? idk how I mist it without it getting wet.. Anyways, I'll find a way. So I'm ready to buy the thermostat, but do I order one or three? Cause I figured I could plug an extension cord into it and make 3 more ports, or is it only designed for one? Once again guys, thank you all so much for this advise it's really helped. You sure beat the n00b outta me :P. So right now, I have 2 more thermometers on the way to measure the hot and cold in the tank (right now it's in the dead center to get an average temp). I also have some plants and stuff to make it resemble a rainforest more cause he's from Central America, which when I went down there is all forest :P. But anyways, I've gotten humidity under control, and temp is mostly under control, just kinda confused cause someone said it shouldn't be as high as 85 cause he can't thermoregulate, but then BSG said that its fine soo kinda confused. Also, some happy news about him, he popped his head out a bit last night, so at least he's thinking about coming out and exploring :P but yeah, hopefully I'm doing the best I can!
