Sorry, I had to move your post. Just want to keep the stickys by themselves.
I know there are different temps in the wild, but these temps are supposed to be the best for them. I have to be honest and say I really don't know how they were established but they've proven to be the right range for many turts and their owners. The temps aren't always that great outdoors, but if we can improve on what they'd get in the wild, then why not, right?
Once I get my boys outside this summer, I'll let you know if I see a difference (good or bad) in behaviour.
