Drag the sun. The sheet states a night temperature, so the rail follows it.

Drawn from the stated numbers. Seen from above: the sheet gives a footprint and no height.

Why

The rectangle carries the exact width-to-height ratio of the figures above it, and the ruler under it places that width on the 0–250 cm scale every sheet here shares, so two species still compare at a glance. Nothing is added that the sheet does not name: a lamp drawn on a sheet that never mentions one would be invented equipment. What the sheet leaves out is listed rather than left blank, because an empty tank reads as « none needed ».

The sheet states≥60×45 cm firm sand (fragile skin)

What your climate adds

This sheet states a range to hold. Your local climate decides how much work holding it is. Pick the nearest city: nothing is sent anywhere, the choice stays in this browser.

What it needs

A thermometerbecause temp — warm spot 30-33 °C / ambient 27-30 °C / night 20-24 °C
A way to check the night figurebecause temp — warm spot 30-33 °C / ambient 27-30 °C / night 20-24 °C
A hygrometerbecause humidity — ~40% (congener-level guidance, T. scincus — T. keyserlingii was formerly treated as a subspecies of T. scincus); desert species, kept dry
UVB, stated as requiredbecause uvb — low (UVI 0.5-1.5)
Not stated: The size of the enclosurethis sheet describes the enclosure without a figure: « ≥60×45 cm firm sand (fragile skin) »

Every line above is deduced from a value this sheet states, and names which one. Nothing here is a general recommendation. What the sheet does not state is listed too, rather than left out: a kit that looks complete is worse than one that names its gap.

This sheet states 5 of 7 of the fields this product runs on. What is missing turns something off: day/night engine and awake count on the globe, the diet section. We show the gap rather than fill it with a plausible number.

UVB is measured but does not count: it is absent from 421 of 678 sheets, and on most of them that is not a gap, since a nocturnal snake's sheet has no reason to state a UV index. Counting it would call the library incomplete without cause.
