Good diet- what are your basking temps and how are you taking them? You want a digital probe thermometer- those will give actual surface basking temps? The poop looks like it has undigested bugs that would be not high enough temps-- the extra liquid in the paper towel means he's hydrated- what are you using for a uvb? This is really important as well- is it a coil or tube?
Usually her basking spot is like 100 degrees, the cool side is 80… I had an infrared thermometer but my boyfriend broke it I need to wait until I get paid to get another one… she has a tube UV light, but we just rescued her a few months ago, and they told me the bulb needed to be replaced in August… so I’m saving up to get her new lighting hopefully within the next month Bc I just don’t trust the previous owners.
Please lay off the super worms those should be used for treats -- 1-3 every other day or so and if she gets stubborn then cut them back more ---please tell me what the UVB tube is brand and bulb is it a T 5 or T 8 --- this is important as they have certain distance and placement for best effectiveness of the rays -- I would of replaced it anyway as you really dont know how old the bulb is - if its T 8 it is way over time of expiration and is doing no good - if its a T 5 I would replace it in July-- the bulb is only going to cost around $21 or so -- I can help you get set up for lighting but this UVB is extremely important --- as of right now she is getting sick w/ no UVB ---- if it has warmed up where you are get her outside every day or every other day direct sunlight --let her sit on you for as long as you can but at least 15 min this will help her till you get the new bulb or UVB lighting -- just let me know what your using so I can guide you to a good one --
Right now she has a T8.. I thought the bulb and hood needed to be replaced once a year? My baby isn’t even a year old yet…. I will go buy her a new bulb as soon as I get paid… she has a 10 UVB is that good enough? It’s 24inches and goes across her 40 gal tank… I’ll show you a picture of how I keep it on the tank with the mesh off… because I read that sometimes the UVB isn’t strong enough to go through the mesh…. So I believe it’s 18inches away from her because it sits on the top of her tank.
Ok so what you need to do is get a new bulb as soon as you can the one she has is expired long ago - T 8 's need to be changed out every 6 months I recommend every 5 -- when you can please upgrade the T 8 to a T 5 24 inch fixture - next please get a piece of decor place directly underneath the UVB approx 6-8 inches --- its too far away w/ the distance its at now so even if the bulb was new it would not be doing much good -- and it is good that it is unobstructed -- T 8's need to be --- a T 5 can sit on top of the screen ONLY if the screen is a wide hole type tho -- please ask more questions if you have them I can help you
