Too hot?

Postby macaroni_thief » Mon Jul 20, 2015 7:24 pm

I have two Northerns, and I live in hot Northern California. Upon having problems with my property management team, and my air conditioning going out, I've been without AC for five days. It is 90 degrees F in the reptile room (32.2 C to everyone else).

The heat lamps are off, and I know blueys are from hot Australia, but is this too hot for them? They are mostly sleeping, but I'm still concened.

PLEASE HELP.

Sometimes my room gets that hot. As long as there is a cool down at night, they'll be fine. Definitely leave the heating elements off.

My three northerns are eating like stray dogs, so I guess they are ok!
