RE: help on maccies

You shouldn't use day globes 24/7, they need a photoperiod. Use red if you are keeping them on all the time. I would also have the warm end about 32-33.

RE: help on maccies

Either globes or a heat mat/panel could be used 28-30 degrees is good. Just ensure to read up on animals BEFORE you are going to keep them, it saves a lot of problems and sick/dead animals
