Needing help with determining subspecies
I recently got this BTS for my birthday but my husband is not good at asking questions when getting pets. She came from a pet store. I know he/she is around 6 months old and that she is indonesian. I am not sure if she is tiliqua gigas evanescens, tiliqua gigas gigas classic or halmahera? She does have spotting on both front and hind legs, mainly on hind legs. She has the signature black marks or her head and she is very long. She is more green than red on her back and has brown in between the black stripes across her back. If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated. (Substrate has been change since the first picture)

Re: Needing help with determining subspecies
Looks like a classic Indonesian (Tiliqua gigas gigas).
They should have a humidity there is 80% at night and dries into 60% at the middel of the day.
They are mostly imports so I would read up on how to spot the symptoms for unwanted parasites.
Good luck
