The entire snake room, just the cages or both?



In my old house I would heat the entire room and always thought that is was a waste and had to be another better way.



So in our new old house I decided to go with in cage heating and I think that this was a huge mistake.



Right now I am just heating the room to 60-65 and letting the cage heat do the rest. I realized that some of my home built cages/racks would need to be upgraded in order to withstand the cooler temps an worthwhile expense simply because of the ease of use.



Comes down to its not working the flexwatt, heat cord and UTH just don't cut it and its time to find a decent portable heater.



Any other methods?
