I understand being broke. But I have to rant a second, again, not trying to be rude or anything here.
People don'to hesitate throwing down 100-200 for a big normal girl, or morphs. They buy multiple snakes for upwards of that knowing they got a good deal. But when it comes time to buy a thermostat, for your rack, you are putting the lives of all of your snakes (say 4 snakes at 100 each, $400..and that is way low for most starting collections) that's where they want to trim costs? It makes no sense to me. Then, even more silly is trimming cost on an incubator tstat, which in theory is the lives of say 2-3 clutches. Possibly over a thousand dollars in babies (not even touching on the fact they are lives.. just business perspective here) so they save <$80 on going cheap tstat. And then gamble a temp spike or failure...it just doesn't make sense to me. Don't pair until you have saved up for a good tstat. How long do you think it would take you to save up $100? If you already have 40. That's only $60 of saving. Put in $5 a week and you'll have the money in 3 months. 3 months...vs getting it now and risking all those babies.
again, I'm sorry..I wasnt trying to aattack you personally. I've just seen so many people recently going with a cheap tstat to save money ..I just can't imagine risking the lives of my babies over a $60 difference.
