Petnap heat pad

Does anyone use these ? Or can give me any advice on the best heating for vivariums. I don't usually need any heat as our house is really warm but a few days ago I noticed tiggy was quite cold to touch , I think had it gone any longer she would of attempted hibernation . All the others were toasty and warm , I don't know if it's because she's a bit older but I want to get some permenant heat in her viv for her and would appreciate any advice . Thanks xx

Pet nap is quite good the armoured plated is quite good Jo , or you could use a normal heat mat and thermo x

Thanks Lou , will have a look on the Internet . I was worried about her chewing the cables, has anyone had any problems with this ? X

Armoured plated she can't on the pet nap . I just put mine on the back or underneath the viv jo no problems x

That's great Lou , I've seen one on amazon so will get it ordered x

i use a habistat heat mat and thermo, never had problems of chewing...

My heat mats are under the vivs not in them .x

Hedgehogs are not known nibbles Jo x

mine are in the vivs...under their liners...not always on either...and only in certain vivs.

i know they don't nibble much and I don't think tiggy would but I know if I put something in Dennis's viv he would chew it !!! Lol he chews everything ! I just wanted to make sure that they all weren't like him ! Lol x

Jo i slot mine inbetween the vivs .... its like a little heated floor ..and they cant touch the wires .x

I have the mats under the liners in their vivs. I don't have separate vivs it's all one big unit x

Putting them on the wall of the viv also works as not direct heat ....
