Temps for babies should be 88-90 degrees for their hot spot. I like to keep my balls around 88 at the highest but that is just a personal preference. Their cool side can get as low as 80-82 degrees.

Good luck with your new balls and post some pics when you get them :)

They also like to have hides. Some do anyway. lol Most of mine never go in their hides. Some look downright mad when I put hides in with them. lol

I do have hides for them. I have the rack heating up, Checking again to make sure it will hold temp, Making sure all will be good when they get here Tuesday!
