If you can't afford a thermostat right now, then do not even bother using your Uth. Unless its regulated, temps can reach over 100 degrees

I have a thermometer on top of the substrate and it's reading 28c.

You have to measure it on the glass though on the inside under the substrate. It can get well over 100 and if he burrows he can get burned. You can put the uth on a lamp dimmer temporarily, there like 10$ at any home improvement store, but never ever ever let an unregulated heat mat run.

A therMOMETER measures temperature.
A therMOSTAT regulates temperature.
Until you get a thermostat or a lamp dimmer, do NOT use the UTH.

Where in Canada are you?
If you live in Alberta, like myself, you will NOT be able to find LIVE rats. They're only available in f/t.

It's unplugged. I'll see what I can find to regulate the temp tomorrow.

In BC.. I meant I am looking for a source for breeding. Nobody wants their pets to be eaten.

..I use a light dimmer for my uth and it stays at 91* f constant where I have the little dial. Before I got my ball python, though, I spent a good four days measuring the temperature day and night to make sure it is Reliable.

Good job rescuing the little one and good luck getting some rats. You may have to find a breeder online and have some shipped to you.
