okay, it's obvious my avic craves more heat. today i splurged on a heat rock ($9.99 compared to a $16.99 heating pad) not thinking about how in the heck i'm gonna get the cord to come out of the kritter keeper. fine, fine, i'm a dork. anyhoo, my avic is at the top of the enclosure to be nearer to the heat rock (which is sitting on top of the lid). should this be fine? in theory it should be warm enough, but heat rises...
usually i don't worry too much about higher temps--the heating pads i have seem sufficient. but this heat rock thing--i don't know. it's warm enough, and it's obvious the avic digs it, but is the lid the best place for it? or should i cut out a gaping hole to route the cord through?
ideally, i'd like to keep my t's without the heating units, however, i live in a very, very old apartment complex (which are actually quite cool!) and the heat vents are controlled by the rental office. it's been warm here, so they turned off the heat, but now it's freezing. any inventive ideas you can throw out? thanks.
