Thanks for pointing that out, Patrick. When I read "weird" I think my brain turned off and didn't process the rest of the sentence.

Lanie, perhaps try the trick I described above to create dotted records in your main domain. This saves you from having to having to stand up your own DNS server for the subdomain or have to pay for hosting a second domain.

I'm assuming by "current configuration" you have a DNS host that doesn't allow adding NS records? One thing you might be able to do is create records like:

host1.subdomain.laniecarmelo.tech A 1.2.3.4
host2.subdomain.laniecarmelo.tech A 1.2.3.5

In my DNS host I can create a host1.subdomain A record without creating an actual subdomain (e.g. creating a subdomain.laniecarmelo.tech NS record).
