Sulcata Ques...... Empty Sulcata Ques......

Post  Spider Woman Fri Jul 27, 2012 9:48 pm

The first year after I got my babies I kept a heat lamp on at night. Now that there a little over a year old shouldn't it be ok for me to NOT have the night heat? The house stays in the low 70's. I would think so but thought I would get a second opinion, or three, etc.......

Thanks Robin

My sulcata is near the same age. I have a ceramic heater that comes on when temps get below 60 and as the temperature drop I also keep the humidity lower.

Thanks, mine are inside so it never gets below 70. I left it off last night and they were not all tucked in their shells, they were layed out like normal so I guess it didn't bother them.
