Someone is reading this thread as a guest, and I felt the need to ressurect it, and bring to light updates in husbandry that have been discussed since.

I know. I intend to get more tomorrow. I got all that the store had. I can't go anywhere today as I'm under 2.5 feet of snow. I'm sorry about the quality of the pics- all I had was the camera on my phone. It's about 3 inches deep but I'm trying to get it around a foot deep when I'm done.

Thanks Bill. The stick-on thermometer came with the tank. I have a digital temp gun I use to measure temps as I don't trust those stick-ons at all. I am getting more soil tomorrow for him and I'm going to try to cover up the areas around the lamps like you suggested. I really appreciate it. I did read the link from earlier in the thread and will get the book you suggested.

You are an asset to our hobby Bill!

I also updated the links, since sav.org is now gone.

Speaking of, do you know who owned Sav.org? I want to say the first name was Bill or Will if I remember right.. Anyways, to my point. Have you attempted to contact the previous owner or in any way track down the contents of that site? It had quite a bit of excellent information in it, and the author worded it all quite well. The only part that wasn't necessarily 100% accurate was the parts where it was said that rodents were the sole cause of obesity. But the rest of it was great, and there were some good pictures of various ways to construct a suitable cage.
