Night temps

[Lala0]

Hi, I live in the uk so as you can imagine the temp drops down a bit at night. I know the ambient temp at night should be around 70f, but was wondering how this can be maintained??

As long as it doesn't drop any lower than 50F he/she will be fine. I'm in the UK also and my house without central heating on stays at 65F at night

Yes yes as long as its over 50. I live In tge us. And sometimes have a chill problem.
I have a radiant heater set to 55 as a just in case but I have lots of herps.

A night time bulb distanced from him so it keeps It from getting to cold bit be sure not to over heat at night, they need the chilly temp to properly shut down and fully rest.

@ the OP, I highly doubt it'll get below 50F indoors in the UK, but IF and I mean IF it does get below 50F, you can purchase heat ammiters that don't produce light.

REPTILOVER pretty much said what I was going to. If by chance it does get below 50 you can purchance a ceramic heat emmitter that produces heat and no light. Its important to have no light because they will not get fully rested.

Would a nocturnal light be seen by a cham? Red or dark blue that they sell as nocturnal. I know my ball Pythons and leopard geckos don't see em at night.

I'm not doubting heat emiter is much better cause it is!

Bulbs are just cheaper in most cases

Good

Ok, doesn't look like I need anything then as it will stay above 50.

Thanks for the help!
