Well said Phil. They just want to make a sale of a snake and set up, and if your told £25 will be added to the bill it put more people of than they would make in revenue from selling the stats as they should.

A vast amount of shops don't tell you that unfortunately, because the thought of another 30 quid bit of equipment could possibly put you off buying it.
Therefore they could lose a sale.

Also, no offense but unless your dad is an experienced reptile keeper, then I wouldn't take his word for it either.

My dad also thought the same, but he lived in India for a vast amount of his life, so heat wasn't needed for pet reps either.

Sorry if you feel pressured its just that its a big cause of injury to snakes and we just want to help you to help your snakey! You're doing a brilliant job so far Luke. Get the stat and you'll be set for a solid future with your little fella! Oh and the £17 for the stat is all you'll have to pay cuz it can be used on any mat upto 100w so should see you through to the end.

At the risk of repeating myself Luke please see my reply to your other thread. I looked up the link for you to get a stat at a cheap price.

ok but until i get one i will monitor it and turn it off at night
hillzi Posted - 31/10/2009 : 23:59:26
Yes! definately. without the stat, it could overheat to over 150*.

Not worth the risk, you could come home to a pile of charred rubble of what was your house mate. ;)

Only £20, a habistat 100w stat will suffice perfectly. :D
