 What do you guys get antsy about?

What are some of the things we get OCD about when keeping our Uro’s? Be it heat gradient, diet, UVB bulbs secretly not emitting..What do you guys worry about the most?

Me personally it’s UVB bulbs not emitting any UVB rays which is why I think I replace them out of fear before 6 months....waaay before...

finding the freshest food. most of the produce clerks know me by name now (thought I was either insane or a health freak before they knew about my uro’s) they will get the freshest greens from the storage for me. I think of it if I wouldn’t eat it my uro’s will not. some times I have to go to 3 or 4 grocery stores to get a fresh varied diet. UV light and temps are another ocd. I have meters to check and also have many precautions I take with keeping controlled temps.

-thermostats in cage (day night) room heat ,a/c unit,cages on timers. battery powered alarm if temps get too high or low. that way I dont have to worry as much. or if I sleep in the temps will be maintained automatically.
