How much does heating your snake room affect your bill?

Do you mind linking me to the ranco thermostat that you use?

5 year old dead thread

I can't really tell the difference in my bill, but it rarely even gets as cold as 40F lows in the dead of winter here. When I lived in Denver, CO it was about $35 a month but my collection was about double what it is now wattage wise.

My snakes are throughout my house, not in one room, but the difference is negligible anyway, with mostly colubrids that like room temps & using mostly low wattage UTH for heat- so my input here doesn't really count.

Practicing necromancy, I see! :rofl:

FYI, I knew that when I posted, but it's been a bit quiet around here lately so maybe we shouldn't rag on those who picked up an old thread rather than start a new one, eh? That's my take, anyway.

Psh Im back from the dead anyways

Insulation of the room makes a huge difference. Old drafty house, it cost me about 80 bucks a month to run my reptile room, it was about 64sqft. New house, I built the room. insulated 200sqft room ambient only (room is 86 degrees all the time). $35

I was joking. I see nothing wrong with resurrecting a dead thread if the topic is relevant. There's always someone new to see it!

I look at it that way too. I think in the past, some of us were too eager to poke fun at new members posting, after which some of them seemed to disappear. That's not our intention, but it appears that they didn't exactly feel "welcome" if they were new & just tried to post where they thought best.
