Hello! I was wondering if you had any good recommendations for a thermometer/hygrometer for a gecko enclosure. I really want to help my sister take good care of her gecko and I'd like to get her one that actually works for Christmas.
Hey, I’m sorry this is so late of an answer and not much help for Christmas anymore. :( For cheaper options, I like the Acurite thermometer/hygrometers like this one and have used them in my crab tank for a few years. I used one in Charis’s viv too, but she broke it off the wall, and then repeatedly knocked it off any perch, so that didn’t work great, lmao. I decided to go with station + sensor options like this for both the crabs and Charis now, though I haven’t really had them in use much yet. But hopefully they’ll last longer with the station being outside the enclosure (especially with the crabs). I gotta double check the humidity readings for all of them, to see how much they’re off by - if you need help figuring out how to do that, just google calibration test for hygrometer, you should get something about using a teaspoon of damp salt + sealed container. With the digital things, you can’t adjust it to be correct, but you can note down how much it’s off by so you can still keep track. I hope this is still a little helpful even though it’s so late!
