yeah my heat mat is in the middle one threaded through the hole in the back under my liner...you can buy these in any pet shop...vx48 like helen said....nice size. i personally think the top 3foot one is small, which came with flint, when i got him...but its good for my pregnant mums... which poppet aint a very active hog any ways. plus that wooden cabin is tiny, wouldnt recommend that either. | |

| The 36 inch by 18 inch are fine Tayer i think the one you have is 3ft by 15 inch . The standard housing is 36inch by 18inch but the bigger the better .x | |

| As you can see Nelson does not sleep in his Igloo .. lol he sleeps under his liner . Bottom viv is Nigel's ...
I have my heating on all the time , ask Helen . she had to open the window she was that hot .. in her bedroom .... so i only tend to have my heat mats in when it's extra cold .x | |

| flint sleeps under his liner, and i think it is because the wood keeps the hogs warm...flint is boiling and so is the spot of wood he sleeps on....! but he had been in his pouch last night and this morning!!
