As the title says really.

Thought it might be worth a go now that I have a set of scales that work and he's weighing in at a mighty 621g empty

I'm thinking of switching Sherman over to ceramic 24/7 instead of switching it off and using a heatmat at night. Does the lack of temperature drop at night have any significant effect?

Would it be benefitial or not? Any thoughts anyone?

Don't you have 27 hour days up north? Yet another example of how much more advanced we are down here in the south

If you think he's big enough now then I'll whip the heatmat out. Cheers

Paulus, BE is a southerner but he emigrated..lol

thank god we dont have 27 hour days, i would end up killing the kids..


On the subject of ceramics, i would use them asap maybe even from when they are little, but make sure he has a moss box as i was told a couple of times that ceramics tend to dry the air out..hence i leave mine in all the time...

I run them 24/7 with no probs...

if you were wanting to keep the night time drop you could get a stat with either the night eye(habistat) or magic eye(microclimate) function.
