Just wondering.

I put them outside when it is very hot. Yeah, Shelby is easy to get on camera but not Dexter.

Those can heat up pretty quickly, keep a close tab on the temperatures.

Yeah, don't worry. I pull the tub into shades if it's hot.

Still, use an actual thermometer... temp guns are awesome in these situations.
