Well... here goes... I've been researching Sav's for a couple months now... I have a setup all put together for my new baby coming on Wednesday. My question is.. I've seen several different things that have a range of basking temps.. from 90 F -120 F... what is the most appropriate basking temp for these guys? I think thats about my only question really. Right now I've got a bask of about... 100 F. And that was after only about 20 minutes of heating up so I suspect it would go higher after a few hours.

the best basking temps for a savannah are 110-120 F. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
