[QUOTE="avemonsters, post: 185182, member: 34846"] I just got my very first T's, a G.Pulchra and the breeder gave me 3 sling Pulchripes as a bonus. I've had them for about 3 days now, and although initially I thought this was going to be uncomplicated, many problems have arised. The main one being: I live in Los Angeles, California. During winter, at night, it can be in the 40's. My house does NOT have a central heating system, and my landlord is super penny pinching about my use of the wall heater and he will make passive aggressive comments to me when he hears the unit has been running for a while. I got a fan space heater (electric) as a quick solution for now and have them in my bathroom (which is free of chemicals, I made sure of it). However because I live ALONE I am terrified of leaving the electrical space heater on when I'm not home or say, if I have to go out of town for a weekend because sometimes work requires me to do so. I don't want to leave and have a space heater running unsupervised. What is the best, safest, non-hazardous way of keeping my T's warm when I'm not home? Any ideas? I know this sounds complicated but I would appreciate any expert tips because I'm losing my mind over this haha. I really wanna enjoy the experience but I'm very stressed. [/QUOTE]
