I like my premier heat plates. https://www.premier1supplies.com/p/heating-plates-and-covers?criteria=heat+plate I do use a dimmer with them to dial the temp as I like it as mine runs a little hot in my opinion. I don't use the covers; chicks like to sit on top :)
The thing with the sweeter...

I know I also got 7 and 9 for growth.
I have a message in to Foy to see what size they...
I didn't like the way the guy in the video handled that back toe. I put all the toes, including the back, into the opening then slipped it over.
If you use them, be sure to keep your eye on them and change them before they become snug. No matter what they say, any kind of band will make a...
I used all the colors without an issue. There are so few colors, however, that I did stack some to tell them apart. Like I'd use singles, then if I needed more, I'd do 2 different colors together like purple and yellow. Or red and green. That way it was easier to see at a glance than double...
