im thinking of gettin an cb10 pastel and if i do i will be keeping it in a rub
my concern is that we have no central heating in our house so the room my snakes are in is quite chilly this time of year. would a heat matt be enough to keep the snake healthy if so what wattage would i need as i have never had a young royal b4. the ones i have had have all been adults and kept in vivs. the other thing is keeping an ambiant air temp, how would i go about getting this in a rub |

What's the temps of the room? Do you still have vivs?
A heat mat would be enough to create a hot spot (area of mat) but only raise the ambient temp in the rub by a couple degrees at best. The wattage just depends on the size of the mat which you want covering a 1/3 to a max of 1/2 of rub and attached to a thermostat. Using a rub the ambient depends on the room temp. You could use a oil filled rad to raise the room temp. |

no i don't have any old vivs anymore
will have to have a re think, either try and make some room for another viv or leave it for a while
we have had oil filled rads in the room b4 but as the house is draughty it doesn't make much difference
thanks for the info bob |

| how cold's the room Blackskull cause you could build a wooden box over the RUB to help insulate it so the rub sits in it like a drawer if that makes sense. |
