its somewhere else but if i was to move the heat mat and put it under the straw on a timer for few hours either over night or just before bed time then it would heat it up
Ah right i didn't realise that.. but the straw would keep the area slightly warmer if there was a heat mat under it for a few hours?
thanks for your reply!
Hello All,
I feel my tortoises might be getting slightly cold out in the garage and although they have a big heatlamp and a heat mat (heat mat isn't in the hide)
I have put straw in the hide and placed them in there for tonight as i think it would be warmer with the straw as "insulation?"...
