hi, ive visited many websites with caresheets for ackies, and they all say about temperature, but none of them say about the temp for ackies at night, also they give different temps for during the day. so please could some one give me the temp,
day: basking surface temp? hot end? cold end?
night: basking surface temp? hot end? cold end?
it would be very helpful if some one could reply |

You need a basking temp of 110f and a cooler end down to 80f. Night temp can drop to the low 70's, no basking heat required.
Click on here http://www.captivebred.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=512 to see how to create a real hot basking site without over heating the cage.
All the heating in my cages goes off at night, the room slowly drops down to a min of 68f, then in the morning everything comes back on and all the lizards come out to bask. |
