Temp probs in the closet

heffner2212 Sep 03, 2005 01:58 PM

Ok well is it ok that the ambient temps keep wobbling between 80 and 85? FOrt some reason as the day varies I get a different temp.
Its getting me very frustrated. The heat lamp is hanging from the pole where u put ur clothes on today in the closet. It is facing the wall and leaned up sgainst the wall. The temp today is 80....any suggestions?

Sounds fine to me... he's got a warmer spot to go to if he wants, right?

Actually, I just got my blood a new cage, and the ambient temps have been dropping to 76 degrees at night!!! She never seems to leave the heat pad or at least near it though, so I haven't worried too much.

Should I add some back heat to my boaphile to help the ambient temperature a bit??

Heat tape, proportional thermostat, rubbermaid with holes in it...
