Here's an very heavy hog isle cross that would easily take a small rabbit - http://www.caledonianconstrictors.co.../fudge%20a.JPG

Thats a pretty big hoggie! The tail on that one is really pink

When I post "I shoot for an ambient temperature of 78 degrees with a 90 degree hotspot for my girl"

and the next post you add is:

"(I wouldn't have a hot spot at 90 or anything)"


.....kind of a low blow there, if you want to add what you keep yours at I would welcome it. I posted my heartfelt, educated advice. No need to take shots.

When I was composing my post, there were no replies to the thread. It took me a little bit to go find my egg photos to hotlink. When I posted, there were suddenly 3 other replies.
My post was in no way directed at you, it was just a weird coincidence regarding the temp thing. I hope that helps explain!

it's a cross called a 'Sunset' which is a hog isle bred with a hypo Bi (usually Colombian locality) so they get quite bright orange and red coloration.

If you've ever seen Superbad I feel like when a slight quarrel happens here the guy who busts in the room and yells "FIGHT!" should be used as a meme

I'm really sorry for the miss-understanding as well and any derail on the thread. The only fighting I like to do is in video games!

Also forgot to ask, what would you use to heat a melamine cage? I was thinking a heat panel? I know some people rig up a heat mat using plexiglass but I really like the idea of the heat panel.

I totally missed this question. I haven't used melamine but I would agree that a heat panel would probably be the best option.

Quick question-if you had to choose would you choose:A pair of corn snakes, a bull snake or a hog island boa?

[Prognathodon]

I think a bull, but it would be a hard choice.

Hey guys. So I was wondering,if hogs need a hot-spot around 75-82(?) and my room temp is around 70(Might get a little higher but won't go under) what wattage of heat panel would I need for this cage?
