    Re: Heating/humidity questions (new owner)

    Cornels World is in western Canada.
    http://cornelsworld.com/

    allreptiles.com is in Toronto, has good selection of UTH pads and heat tape, and will ship.

    As for covering the top (and sides, and many other uses):

    I folded duct tape around the edges to create a sort of flap to create a better seal and keep the humidity in.

    After her initial look-a-round she's spent most of her time so far in the warm hide (with another wander right before I went to bed)

    If I do end up going the UTH route, is there a particular basic thermostat you would recommend? During me research I saw seen some people say get one from the hardware store, others a dedicated reptile one (like the Herpstats).

    All I've seen in the stores around here so far are rheostats, and a lot of US companies either don't ship to Canada or charge an arm and a leg to do so

    Thanks again!
