Yes, you can use ambient temps for BP's. I've bred BP's for the past 5 years using ambient temps - no back or belly heat provided. You will be fine as long as your ambient temps are consistent. A long time ago when I was really pressed for space, I kept a few pairs in a walk in closet. I kept the closet heated with a single spotlight and for the breeding season, I turned the spotlight off! Good luck!
