She's growing pretty good. She still loves her greens and now that we have discovered Dubia roaches she will eat nothing else. She didn't eat more than a worm or two for 3 days while we waited for the mail.

I did not know... I have already ordered her a new light that shipped out today.

I had originally ordered a ceramic heat lamp but cannot use it with the lamp I have. It's been a cluster of issues.

Yea colored lights don't allow their pupils to adjust correctly so I'm glad to hear that you are getting new lighting for basking area, what are you using for UVB? as long as your temps don't go below 65F at night no need for CHE

under several of our comments you'll find a couple of links (can't see if on taptalk) we've put together info for general care and in there you will find all sorts of info and lighting/heating is a section in there.

I am returning the CHE and keeping the basking bulb that I just purchased today. As for the UVB I am using a reptisun 10.0
I got her a Hammock, a screen lid, and the dual dome light and all of that came today. New basking bulb should be here by Wednesday.

reptisun 10.0 as in a long tube style T5 or T8 or is it a compact one?? err umm don't want you to think I'm picking away at ya as your little one is looking great.. However if your using a compact UVB that typically comes in those dome fixtures those will cause eye damage as they focus the light too much in a small area... :( sorry if I'm the bearer of unwanted delays if ya know what I mean I just wanna make sure your little one isn't getting hurt and if these are your bulbs the sooner they are changed the better as it is clear you love your adorable little one.
