So i posted a question a few days ago as to how my leopard gecko's housing is so i knew if i was doing it right. This is a similar question with the alterations that people told me, and i want to know if this is how the cage should be
The light in the basking area is a low voltage basking spot bulb that measured a temp of 87-92 degrees in the day (no the stick on is not what i used, old cage and just never got rid of them, i have a much more accurate thermometer to tell the temps). The UVB was removed and replaced with a ceramic heat bulb, I leave this on all day and night so during the day it keeps the cool side good, and at night helps keep the heat to a good area of the low 70s. The day bulb in on a timer to shut off. He has a heating pad under the warm hide area thats also on at all times. The cool hide has moss so it doubles as a damp hide. The powder in the dish is a mix of Rep-Cal Calcium and Multivitamins, and the Rep-Cal Calcium and D3. The food hes given in the food dish is covered with each supplement every other feeding (like one feeding is the calcium multi, and the other is calcium and D3) He has two water dishes, one by the cool hide and one by the food dish. The liner is repticarpet to avoid impaction issues. All the cover and stuff in the cage right now is used so when he walks around he doesn't feel exposed. Is this good for him or should things be changed. If it helps he is a baby, about 3-4 inches atm.
Any and all advise is appreciated.
