As for feeding the crix, I assume they're live? Are you feeding him in his cage where he might be ingesting substrate?

You need a 160 for that cage...basking spot should be 110-120...so the rock should be moved up until those temps are achieved

Trust me--your animal will do much better with some UVB from a heat source....so his body can create D3 they way it was meant to. Not to mention aid in digestion and overall health | |
