(Geez, I hope I'm posting this in the right place. My apologies - I'm a newbie here )
Recently I decided to separate my two leopard geckos (both are about 4-6 months old, I think) because one was noticeably skinnier than the other. Luckily, I had a spare 10-gallon tank and some extra supplies. Unfortunately, I only have one heat lamp for the two of them and its not enough to heat both tanks. At the moment I can't really afford to go out and buy another dome and bulb, atleast not until I determine how long they'll have to be separated/whether or not I'll be able to house them together again. Do you more experienced leo momma's and daddy's have any suggestions on how to keep both them warm?
The light itself is a nocturnal heat bulb (I think the product name is "Zoo Med Nocturnal Infrared Heat Lamp") which I keep on 24/7 (I had a question about whether that was okay...to keep a nocturnal bulb on 24/7? The info for the bulb on the website says its fine, but I realize that just because they say that doesn't necessarily mean it's true :worried
Thankyou
