    My Pastel was my first morph too. I would be devestated to lose him, let alone a gravid version. I'm so sorry.

    Don't be too hard on yourself. You had no way of knowing.

    Good luck with the others. Sorry again.

    Sorry to hear about this.

    Were you using an oil filled heater? Those things MUST be plugged into a thermostat. You just need to set the heaters power consumption to the middle. Most of them are between 700 and 900 watts, and not enough to trip a breaker on a good thermostat like a Ranco which can handle 1500 watts. Now if you set the heater to high, it most certainly will trip the thermostat.

    Also with heaters like that in my room, I set them up on Double Rancos. Better safe than sorry.

    Again, sorry to hear this. Best of luck with the remaining animals.

    It was a oil filled heater, set on the low switch, hooked to a johnson control. Then it kept tripping the thermostat, so I plugged it into the wall directly. Like I said.. it worked that way fine last year.. but it was a huge mistake for me to do that. I should have risked chill temps, rather than risking super high ones.
    It will be used only on a thermostat, no matter what.

    I just saw this. I'm so sorry! I can't imagine you pain you must be feeling over the loss. There isn't anything I can say to make it better, but know that I am thinking of you all the time, even if there isn't always time to drop you a line.
