If I were to buy at Reptile Basics, which I am planning on, wouldnthey 'crimp' it for me? My Dad is in the process of building a 55 Chevy 2 door, and has built motorcycles all his life, so if I need any help with wiring he'll have my back.
This rack is only going to be 4 shelves high, 3 feet wide, and I'll be using 4 inch Flexwatt. So thats 3ft x 8 watts per foot= 24 x 4 shelves= 96 watts. A 500 watt capacity thermo should be plenty.
And I won't need night drop for a while, at least another year till be females are up to breeding size, right? Or should you lower temps ate every age? I am planning on building a 41 qt rack next year when they need it, which will definitely have a night drop thermo.
Plus I don't have a male to mate her with, not yet! Should be getting him next week.
