Hey everyone... so ive got my 4month old bci in a 2.5ft viv but ive just noticed that shes climbed on the light cage. Im using infra red atm till i switch to a CHE next month. Ive turned the light off atm but i dont want temps dropping too low.
I was just wondering if anyone else has dealt with this and if she will still get burnt outside the cage. Thanks in advice for any help. Jay

As long as the bulb hangs in the centre of the cage then there shouldnt be a problem - i can touch the CHE guards in my vivs and they feel warm but not hot enough to burn.

Ive checked if the cage was hot and its not. I just wanted a second opinion to make sure lol. Thanks rob.
