Hi,

Basically my corn is in her 3ft wooden viv, the warm side registering 28.7 and the cool side is 26.5. I'm concerned that the cool side is too hot. The viv isn't in direct sunlight and I've currently got a fan blowing towards the cool side in an attempt to cool it down. I'm just wondering if there is anything else I can do to help cool it down a few degrees.

Thanks

Just put fresh water in in the morning. Fans only blow warm air around so won't help too much. With fresh water, they can wrap round the bowl if they're too warm or even get in it to cool down :) just change it daily!

I've found my two curling up over and in their waterbowls a lot for the past few days due to the heat in my room. I've been changing their water daily and putting ice-cubes in the water for them and they're loving it lol. It's just because of the heat, it'll sort itself out and the corns will be fine

I am presently sat with 3 vivs open and a fan blowing into them to keep the temperatures down. Not everyone can do this but it seems to work for me.
