    i use the cloth cover on my heat pad but it's not neccesary. it's really just a matter of personal preference.

    I've tried both on and off. I found with the heat pad bare, it didn't get the heat through to the cage as well as with the cover on. Why? I'm not sure. You'd think it'd be the opposite. But sure enough...without the cover on, my temperatures would be 85-88 and 75-78. With the cover on, my temperatures are 88-90, and 80-83.

    Compadres, it is imperative that we crush the freedom fighters before the start of the rainy season. And remember, a shiny new donkey for whomever brings me the head of Colonel Montoya.
