    burn and a UTH
    One of my BPs had a pretty bad burn on her belly and shes gotten all her injections/had a good shed. Its pretty much healed but not quite there yet, is it reasonable to put her UTH back in ... I have a Thermostat now. Or should i wait until its fully healed.

    I ask because i have a heat lamp on her but i find them very hard to get the correct temp with and as a result its been a little hot and shes been on her cool side alot lately.

    thanks

    I would say yes as long as it's set to the correct temperature.

    Keeping her at correct temps (80-88 gradient) will not cause her burn to worsen. However, I would recommend that you move her into a separate container while the UTH heats up. T'stats are great, but need a few hours to stabilize. Check the temps after 3 hours, adjust as needed, and, once the temps are settled at a good place, stick her back in the cage.
