I just received my first 12 babies. How warm am I suppose to keep them?
I have a 250 watt red lamp and I am using a rubber maid tub.
Thanks
 
How old are they?

New Hatchlings:
Start at 95*F the first week

drop by 5*F each week till you get down to about 70*F

Make sure they can get in & out of the heat. They will self regulate their temp, by moving in and out of the light/heat.

They are about 3 or 4 weeks. I was so excited when I was buying them that I forgot to ask! I will be calling in the morning.

Thanks
