    Someone unplugged my heating devices...RI?

    So apparently my mom unplugged my power strip today to vacuum, of all the outlets i don't know why she chose this one but needless to say I came home from work with temps at 77 degrees. I don't know how long it was like this, when I get home my moms going in for the night shift so couldn't ask her. So I'll say worst case scenerio the temps were like that for 6 hours. Is this long enough for serious RI risks?

    i dont think you have too worry too much. 77 isnt that bad. when it hits 75 or lower for an extended period of time is when you should start to worry. look for sign of RI in the next few days though.

    yea that dosnt sound like it would be long enough to do any damage to your snakes. I think it would take a couple days of cold temps to send a snake into an RI

    Thats what I thought, but it never hurts to get a little reassurance. Anubus just ate for me tonight so hopefully everything will be alright. It was such a shock to see my temps that low when I got home.:eek:
