    Many breeders have success with back heating.
    Some say its even better than belly heating.. I wouldn't know myself.

    I have heard mixed opinions about this. I lean toward the school of thought that belly heat is more important for a bp as it aids in the digestive process. I have always provided belly heat, so I can't comment on how successful back heat is.
