29-30 degrees Celsius is fine for ambient temperatures, but I would also provide a hot spot by using the lowest wattage heat pad that you can find. Use a rheostat or thermostat to control the hot spot, and you should be golden. The climate in Mpumalanga can be pretty brutal his time of year, but at least your heating costs are minimized...

The OP is asking about temperature drops in the context of nighttime drops, not cycling. Nighttime drops to 27 degrees Celsius are perfect for a gravid female.
