A lot of people confuse "shiver protection" with thermal regulating....it's not.
Black Heads and Woma are very sensitive when it comes to egg protection.
I've been fooled as well....thinking that they are thermal regulating but, even vibrations can trigger a black Head to "hug" their eggs...this looks a lot like shivering.
I've noticed thermal regulation with all of my Carpets....not once with the BHPs or Womas. And, I've had a few clutches now. Haha.

Cheers,
D.
