The current setup is back heat with 12quart tubs for babies in a rack setup. Currently temps within the cage are ok, however this setup is very temporary as I'll be moving next week and would prefer belly heat with the system and will be recieving 30 addtional tubs and balls in.
in the set up you descibed you shouldnt have anything to worry about.Personally i would stay with back heat i think its a much safer heat in the event a thermostat goes bad you wont cook the babies.
I've never used this type system before. I've also got some questions regarding how the tape would be used for belly heat without having to cut the tape for every layer and wire each layer individualy to the next. TY for your help
belly heat you would take one long length of heat tape if you dont want to wire each one and weave it from the side acros the shelf up the side across the shelf up the side etc etc ... this would be the ways to do it .Personally again myself i like back heat better on a rack setup esp on a small tub set up as it give more roomto regulate their selves in the tub and get away from heat when the want to .
