Are you posting from out of the US? Maybe somewhere in Europe? I was just wondering, I think there is a problem with the translation program you are using it is mixing up the words a lot and difficult to read, but that is understandable with English not being your native language. I get this problem a lot when I write back and forth to the different German breeders, they tell me my syntax is all wrong from the translation LOL. I guess it is a problem every where.
I don’t personally breed Dums but I understand that they are very similar to keeping a BCI in care. Glad to hear about you doing your homework on them. I would be interested to know how regularly they are bred in your country and what other kinds of reptiles are popular there.
thanks

Well I've had mine going on two years and I'd say cooler temps are not a problem. Remember they come from a area that is semi arid and I suspect that reduced humidity in the air makes for chilly nights in their zone. I have a good 6-8 inches of aspen shavings with a bottom heater so if the tank air temp get too cool at night, she buries herself in the shavings. If it gets warm then, then like cream in a milk jug, she rises to the top.
