Heating

[jaimemuffin]

Hey all,
I just got my first bp, Luna, who is awesome. I'm wondering about her heating set up right now though. I have a uth on one side that she likes to hang out on, and an infrared on that side as well. I should still try to get the ambient temp into the 80s though, right? I'm just thrown off by the uth. I'm used to Beardies!

Also, anyone have advice on che vs infrared?

Thanks!

Yeah, ambient needs to be up in the 80's. Mine right now is 83 according to the thermometer. Hot spot in the low 90's.

How are you regulating the UTH and what is the actual surface temperature of the surface the pad is attached to?

I have it hooked up to a dimmer, but i also have a probe that i check it with.
