That's something i forgot to add. My little guy was always kept around 32 degrees ( as this was what i was told by people at the time ) and he was going great but after talking to Hugsta and seeing his flourish under an OzBright light bulb i gave him a try. Directly under the bulb it stays over 50 degrees and even on the hottest of Sydney days he will still lie under that bulb. i took a temp reading a couple of weeks ago when we had a 37 degree day and it read at being 63 degress and the little bugger was still sitting under his bulb. I must admit he was a great animal before i was obviously doing something very wrong and he is extremely active now.

Simone.
