Thanks, I'll try that out... Fingers crossed.

Yeah I do get a few turns in a year, but unfortunatly this part of Canada, there's not to much powder, lots of -30C though...

Re: Help for a Rookie

we use coconut bedding. You buy it in a brick, and soak it in a gallon of water and it expands. We put that in our BP's tank and it holds at no lower than 40 usually. You have to keep misting though too, and we also have a dish of water under the lamp, but without the bedding, the dish doesnt do anything for the tank.

I think I will try that coconut bedding out. Thanks.

I figured out why Geronamo was in his hide out and very shy for the last week, today he started to shed... Its not a full shed by any means which confirms my humidity problems, I am misting a couple times a day but its just not good enough. I also fired up the Humidifier on the furnace, I can keep it around 50% but I would like to see 60%.

Thanks again for the help.
