 Baby or adult watering

i have had my fence lizards for about a month now. i have two and the female is pregent. i am wondering if they are getting enough water. i am misting them at least twice a day but dont know if that is enough should i put in a water dish? when and if my lizards have eggs and they hatch in the incubator should i give them a water dish or daily misting like the adults?

Can I have the specs on your viv? (Size, temperature, substrate & decor, lighting, etc.)

They should be getting enough water. Most of the water they get from their food -- lizards are great at conserving water. A water dish is a secondary option for drinking, and when they don’t drink it provides all the humidity they need (No misting required).

A shallow water dish would be good for babies. A light misting every day would be good as well. Be sure to keep their tank spotless, though.

Nice, great job! Don’t forget to replace your UVB every six months!
