Yeah, I've had him back inside for the last 2 days as it has been rainy and cooled off to the high 70's. I was worried about evenings in the low 70's, but figured that desert evenings are quite cool as well. Still not taking chances and put a ceramic emitter on the cage for good measure at night. I'm in central ky, and it is generally real hot and humid this time of year. The 88 degree days Mon and Tue before the rain gave me the idea. He definitely basks in the sun once it gets directly over his pen, and differently than he does under his indoor lamps. His head is always tilted up, whereas indoors heusually is just laid flat. I'm hoping come August I can have it out every day.
