heat rocks

not that i have on or am planning on getting one i am just curious becuase i took my son to a pet store that is supposabley well known for having a different varieties of snakes and the had heat rocks in all of the cages..no its not a petsmart or any major pet store its a local family owned pet store...but are heat rocks bad no matter what or just bad without a thermostat for a snake? i personaly dont like this store..but my son likes feeding the turtles there...most of there snakes and lizards are always soaking in water when u go in there..sorry for the run on sentences and the mispellings....was just curious

They are known to be prone to shorting out, and are very difficult to control with a thermostat. They should never be used.

I've been wondering for a long time why they even make them. I don't know that there is any animal for which a hot rock is well suited. if there is, I wish someone could educate me.

Good for nothing. Best left collecting dust on a petstore shelf.

The fact the snakes are always soaking means something is off.

Yall crack me up :rofl:

Heat rocks have been known for burns, and should be left where they are. On the shelf.

Or better yet, in the dumpster.
