Over the summer i built a larger heat house for a group of redfoots and it dosent hold heat as well as i or they would like. Really the whole thing needs to be taken apart and i need to go another route with the insulation but i wont be able to do that for a while. Its a big job. So as of now there is a space heater in there set to 70 and a i would say med. kane mat on the floor. So as a quick fix i ordered another kane mat and a large radiant heat pannel. I have never used R.H.P. before has anybody used one? I know somebody will ask why dont you move them in the garage....My garage is full of mechanic stuff. All i need is for one of them to get a eyefull of grinder. I guess i underestimated how cold it gets at night when i was sweating in the summer. lol
