I keep mine at whatever temp the room is at, when I'm hot their hot, when I'm cold, their cold.

there is really no need. they are fine with temperatures that your comfortable with. my T room is around 80-85 degrees and they dont mind.

as said, room temp should be fine. if rather have a slightly colder T than worry about a heat mat cooking my spider :eek:

my bug room got into the low 60s over the winter here and there, didnt see any problems at all with my Ts, inclusing a bunch of balfouri that continued doing what they do :eek:. i would worry more about excessive heat. not to say 60 is ideal.

I agree with everyone. 75 is fine, but if they are smaller, and you want to get to grow faster, warm them up 5 degrees or so.
