I rearranged my heated shed today. Thought I would post a pic.

Is that one of those Rubermaid tool sheds? If so, how are you heating it and how hot does it get in the summer(compaired to the average daily temps for your area..)
Thanks and great idea,

Yeah, it is a rubbermaid shed. Its about 6X6X8. I only actually heat the bottom room where the sulcata tortoises are. The little bottom room is insulated with insulation and plywood over it. It is heated by 2 ceramic heat emitters on a thermostat. All of the roach bins have their own heat mat. It does get pretty warm in there in the summer because I live in southern CA but if the doors are open, it is not too bad.
