With the female that we just lost, her legs went thin and at the base of her spine/beginning of her tail, sort of sank in. He looks fine on there, there is no bones and nice big legs.

our male doesn't eat alot to be honest, and yours sounds like he eats more each day than what ours ever have. put a locust in his tank. You will soon see him fly across the tank lol

with anything, you have to dance a little and play with wattages and ventilation. it's all about balance...even ambient room temps and humidity are very relevant. i am always tinkering till i get things just right. my place stays about 80f in the winter and i have to run the air conditioner in summer to keep it below 95f -100f.... but there even, that affects relative humidity. there isn't a simple recipe....all variables have to be taken into account. studying the properties of heat and convection, radiation....etc really helps me...but i did all of that years ago. a biggy with me is that most people don't entirely grasp what humidity is and it's relationship to temp. they get fuzzy there. but yep, i suggest to anyone to just tinker with setups and think about the physics of it all. that is really just practice.....aquatics really help because when you change one thing something else changes...it's all about balance and ectotherms like stability......oops!...i got long winded...

you use super worms? gut load those bugs big time...that's a key. wild insects can forage and are powerfully nutritious!! a miserable, starving cricket is just a chitin water ballon.
