I live in AZ. I have 3 nymphs that hatched in early December OUTSIDE when the temperatures at night were too cold, and 1 L2 that hatched in late November. I had 2 others that died. I believe they died because I cannot get the enclosures right. Heating our house dries everything too fast in the enclosures. We try not to heat the house but temps are COLD now. I don't know how to get them UV light or heat without frying them. unless we put them in a big tank. Then they might starve, but is is too cold for them to molt I believe when the house is only in the mid 60 degrees farenheight.  Any ideas?

Thank you!!!
