    What about foil over the windows to reflect the sun back out? A fan going with a frozen towel to cool the room as well. It will drop the room a good five degrees at least. Just keep rotating the towels.

    Tech is on his way now but there’s no knowing what’s wrong, we got lucky that it’s very cloudy here in Poinciana. And as far as taking the babies to someone else’s please....not an option. No one I know is reptile friendly.

    The snakes and other reptiles are sustained. Now I’m beginning to worry about the guinea pigs and sugar gliders

    I definitely can respect being very concerned. But personally, I would not worry till you started getting into the low nineties. You should be just fine. You did right by turning off all the heat sources, good luck. Sorry to hear you gotta deal with this. I just experienced a similar problem with no power at all in my case. And a freaking hot day to boot. Again hope the best!

    You could grab some bags of ice, throw them in buckets and put them in the middle of the room, put a fan on it, (oscillating preferably) and it would circulate the cold

    I was just about to come in here and say this. As long as you have electricity, this is a good way to make some cool air.
