Baseboard heater?

[Sully06012018]

Would a 2 foot baseboard heater work inside an enclosure if placed high enough my sulcata couldn't get too close? I would plan on putting it on a thermostat to control temperature.

I don't see why not as long as you've taken the proper safety precautions.

Thank you...I appreciate your response.

IMO an electric baseboard heater will work great. But instead of raising it out of reach I would be more inclined to keep it on the floor, where it's intended to be, and build a vented box around it to make it inaccessible to the tortoise.
