    Ambient Tempurature spike and gravid females?

    I made a huge mistake by leaving my space heater on one morning before work, the room was a little cool before I left. When my girlfriend came home on lunch she found that the ceiling of the room was close to 100 degrees.

    Has anyone had anything similar to this happen, I have 2 females that are glowing. One very close to laying, does anyone know the possible outcomes. I certainly learned my lesson, granted I am human and do make mistakes.

    Im sure in the rodent burrows that the bps live in, in africa, the ambient temps always stay perfect around 80. With the back of the burrow at 88-90 degrees and the front at 78-80 degrees.

    Im not speaking from experience here but i would say that they should be fine.

    Yea, thats what I was thinking. I would guess most of them were over 94 degrees for over 6 hours though.
