    Congrats on getting the temp up where its needed. Hopefully you can worry less now that he's warm. He should be able to properly metabolize his food as well. I still worry about my frogs everyday even though I know they are fine. Its a parent thing and they are my little babies even though Grif is getting huge to where she doesn't fit my hands anymore Lol!

    I worry about all my animals especially when I spend a night away from them. My mom will feed my fish and dogs, but she won't go anywhere near my frogs or the crickets. When my dad found out I had a tadpole, he flipped, then freaked when I got another frog. Especially since the second frog is going to get huge. He loves snakes but believes frogs are evil. no clue on that one...

    The whole thing about your dad loving snakes but thinks frogs are eveil makes no sence to me considering that in most religions the Devil used a snake as a vessel to corrupt Eve. Unless he believes they are used by witches Lol! Not wanting to really have any religious discussions just pointing that out.

    Well...we're a family of pagans, so I think it's more of a preference thing. No clue really. I like snakes, but I also like my frogs.
    On another note, Jr is not liking the added light, so I only leave it on for maybe an hour then switch it to my Pacific's tank. I still can't think of a better name than #2 for her...The numbers were just so I didn't get attached in case they didn't live. Jr is picky about his crickets now, these new ones are very docile and just sit around. The light really does make all the difference in his temp, though. He closes his eyes when it's on, i'll have to make him a little hide for that.

    Pagans no problem. That's why I said not wanting to get in a discussion about religion. Not wanting to offend anyone. I have many friends that are and some family. I like all animals.

    On the light. Does Jr close the eyes completely or just the pupils? Getting a fake plant and plcing it under the light will help. Probably isn't used to having a brighter daylight cycle. Shouldn't harm too much. If you can rotate the head of the lamp maybe you could rotate it indirectly so its no directly above the tank. If the temp stays up then that will help.

    I love most animals, some insects will never get on my good side (centipede type ones...o_O)
    He closed his eyes completely, but opened them when I moved the lamp. I never have it directly on him. I'll use some kind of hide for him, I just have to get it.
    He's still being a brat on eating these new crickets. i'll give him a bit before I really start to worry. He ate yesterday, so I think he's okay for now.
