I know i've looked this up but i've forgotten. For a plastic faun shall I put the heat mat inside or outside?

Nah, not worth it. Does the job and will be find as in 6 - 8 months you'll need to buy a bigger one when you increase the Faun/Viv size.

so just get another one??
Simmy_82 Posted - 23/08/2011 : 12:01:13
No keep it. It'll be fine. It will do for when you need to go to a bigger vivarium.

it's all arrived but we've got a problem, heat mat too big, send it back?

As Simmy82 says put the mat on the outside of the faun. I have the thermometer probe inside to read the temperature that the snake is actually experiencing but the probe I have on the outside in direct contact with the heatmat. You then adjust the mat temperature relying on the digital thermometer for readings rather than the dial on the thermostat.

yay! we handled it in the shop yesterday and we're hoping we can today, we've picked out a name, we don't know what gender it is but we've decided is a she until proven otherwise :)

It happens to the best of us. My short term memory is shocking!
ScalySituation Posted - 22/08/2011 : 14:12:06
ta... i know i looked it up but at the moment a golfish has better memory than me lol

I have mine outside. But put the probe and thermometer inside so you get an accurate reading from inside the Faun.
