LOL! That is mine.

I am keeping mine at or below 55 degrees in a cooler with the drain plug open. On cold days when the temps stay in the 60s, I only need one ice pack all day, but when the temps creep into the 70s, I have to watch it pretty closely. I check my lizards every few days, and I notice that if the temps approach 60, they wake up but are in a stupor. They stay good and asleep as long as the temps stay at or below 55.
