You say you don't want oudated opinions but this seems to be the product you're talking about and Zoo Med has updated their site/product information since you last looked (if you ever did).

I'll break down the points:
1. Not to be used a sole heat source for tropical animals. (Which you did and is your current argument)
2. Do not bury it in anything. (You did this too.)
3. Has a rheostat not a thermostat built in. (Different tools and the rheostat means you have to monitor the temperature of it constantly and adjust the dial.)
4. If your animal is lying on it constantly it's too cold. (Your iguana did this according to you which means your animal was living in substandard care. I know you didn't know about it and I would guess would have changed had you known) However, the most important about this is you didn't try to learn or look for new information. You have an outdated opinion which in an above quote you railed against anyone else having.
5. This essentially is an expensive piece of decor. Sssnakess already suggested it's what they are good for. |
OK...FIRST.. I don't want to be viewed as the anti- conservative reptile owner.
I have and DO conceed reptile rocks are not the way to go..
HOWEVER, I have NOT..... PROBABLY WILL NOT SEE POSITIVE PROOF OF ANIMAL INJURY IN THE LAST 20 YEARS!
Get you..I'm not advocating them, but I just don't think thei're so bad!
BTW: " Sleeping on it. . not only connects "constantly" with most "normal" minds... BUT!!!!! I ONLY SAID HE SLEPT ON IT ... NOT HOW OFTEN!
