Frank I understand completely what you are saying, My vet is a bright young lady, and she told me Chompers basking spot was too hot??

It's 2.3 degrees below 130!! I just dumped in a heap more dirt, so the rock will be going up a tad closer to the lights by days end tomorrow.

It's just that that slap of stone weighs as much as I do, and I will have to crib it up with some boards while I shovel some dirt under it.
