Greg, what's the brand and type of bulb you use? (Maybe you already posted that and I missed it?)

Never mind, found it!!

Hi Greg, (or anyone) why does the red light not bother them sleeping? I really like the idea of being able to increase the general ambient temp without intense ceramic heat lamps and am considering them for my Uncle Bri. Just would love to hear some feedback on them. Plus, they are far cheaper!

Thanks
Ben

~ We have tried other heating methods and found this is the best overall option for us based on how we have things set up here in Florida.

That's funny how they have all that room and they all squeeze up with each other.
