This is going to seem like a silly question, but you'd be surprised at some of the things people do when they are given the wrong info or don't take the time to research. But anyways I am hoping that by "thermostat in the enclosure" you meant temperature probes??? Sorry if this question offended however that it how is was said above and you have not included any pictures of the enclosure/set up which by the way helps a lot in some cases. ...... Anyhow on another note when is the last time your girl shed?
