Thermostats

Reptiles are ectotherms and rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature. In nature, they use direct radiant heat from the sun as well as conductive heat from sun-heated surfaces such as branches and rocks. Providing an appropriate, species-specific temperature gradient in the terrarium is critical to successful reptile husbandry. Thermostats allow you to create a well-controlled heating system that maintains the required temperature conditions similar to those found in desert or tropical environments. This ensures that your reptiles can thermoregulate effectively, promoting their health and well-being.
