In Reply to: I was planning to try them also in the fall. n/p posted by Niki (waiting for comments now too) on May 12, 2000 at 15:17:32:

had to re-do Teddy's cage slightly because having
the heat in the center doesn't work in the summer.
He's outside in the mornings and some afternoons,
but with the A/C central air on it's a nice 76 in
his cool side now. Put the cool side on the opposite
side of the heat now. And this in an 8 ft. cage.
He's got a big pile of hay in the cool side (which
has a A/C vent right next to it to cool the sides
slightly) and a pile in the middle and in his box.
I moved the heat lamp over to the far right side
with the flat stones also. Much better.
I also took the UVB lamp out for now.
I was planning to use those new bulbs also, and
am interested in hearing any info on them.
