    Re: Winter care - Tips and thoughts

    I am praying that this winter will be like last years... very mild!! here in GA we get ice storms, not much snow.

    I have all that I need to keep all my reptiles safe & warm!! I am prepared. Also you can use those survival heat pads

    you can get them at home depot, or other hardware stores.

    We use our heat when it gets below 50 in the house.. my hubby is a cheap arse. We do use the fireplace alot, that is when all my breathing issues arise too!! yay me!!

    Thanks for this post Wayne...

    heat packs are not a bad idea, but in a power outage, I'd go for ones that last longer - like the 72hr ones used for shipping cold-blooded critters
    Heat packs - 72 hours
