wow can't spell for nothing today lol been up most the night doing research on various things so I really need a nap

Please do not use the water fountain --- its going to increase the humidity in the tank and dragons dont need it they are a desert animal please send it back ---- it will also cause RI 's --- please send it back -- did you order the hygrometer I posted the link for ? when the UVB comes in please post so I can help you place it in the tank they have certain distance and placement depending on the screen on the tank -- we can go from there when it comes in but please do not use the water fountain ----

she is shedding another leg today so going to give her another soak

Ok she doesnt need so many baths --- let her shed do its thing --- too many baths will dry her scales out

I can cancel the fountain not a problem it's not a running fountain it's a trickle fountain like it drips down the rock at a slow rate so it's not supposed to cause humidity it's not a steady stream

I see well to air on side of caution lets not do it --- you dont want her sick er -- we dont know her background and we need to get her basking temps correct and that UVB that is what keeps them healthy --- and the way your son found her was not good --- shes had it rough

I get that but she has had 6 Mos of tender loving care he has taking her from near death to really good health she has had vet visits I'm new I panicked until I saw she was shedding and read the behavior is normal I guess I panic a few more times until I know what's normal what's not thank goodness my vet is only 2 blocks away lol because I'll probably be bugging him alot lol.

Ok thats good --- dragons will hide their illness till the very end you wont know shes sick till its almost too late its a instinct thing ---- that is why we want to prevent that and the correct basking temps and UVB is going to do that -- plus good diet as well

Sounds good - watch your dog around rexie we have had several dog / dragon disasters on another forum - the dragons didn't make it plus the dog may stress her out too much

oh I don't let the dog near rexie she is protected I don't let the two near each other I have a Yorkie mix he is very skittish runs and hides from everything so would not stress him out neither .
