I have an African spurred sulcata who will be five in June. She has a killer custom enclosure inside. My plan is to have her out side by June but may bring her in during the winter till she is older.
I am getting started with my out door enclosure now and have some questions. My contractor is building me a dog house type structure that I plan to put a heat pad in. The roof will have a hinge on it so I can clean it. Cirby will have access to a large fenced area that's grass.
Can you give me a good idea how big her house should be?
I figured I would have the heat pad cover half of it. Does that sound OK? I don't what size mat I should get. You guys mentioned Kane and Stanfield models. What does the controller do? Is it like a thermostat?
Do I need the walls insulated?
Cirby is 7x10 inches now.
Do you think she is safe out side at that size?
I am so glad I tripped over this site.
Thanks so much
