LIES. Excellent, natural and necessary. They DO NOT catch on fire, THESE do not get as hot as the sun on rock, lizards heat up and THEY MOVE when warm enough!.
IN nature lizards lay on hot rocks not just heat from above and around, directly on their BELLY is necessary. just like anything check to see if its even on or possibly too hot. BEARDED DRAGONS CAN TAKE MORE HEAT THAN ANY LIZARD google it. These heat rocks don't get hot enough too injure or kill. I have used them for 12+ years. 4 anoles 2 bearded dragons super healthy. plus Natural sunlight exposure for my bearded dragons. THEY LIVE IN THE DESERT in the wild at 120 degrees.
NEVER PUT BASKING LIGHTs OVER HEAT ROCKs, thats dangerous...
its in the instructions.
Yes, I recommend this product.

We purchased the larger heated rock for our new bearded dragon. It was something we saw recommended online. He seems to love it. The mid-level review is due to some confusion, while online reviews were positive while visiting a different Petco I was told to remove it immediately because they had several reports of beardies being burned while on the rock. Only want to do the best for ours and not sure if we did. Again, he seems to love it.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I have a leopard gecko. I got this rock a month or two ago and I had previously had the under the tank heater. Something was wrong with my gecko so we took her to the vet and they said one of the reasons was because the under the tank heater was burning her. It was the Zoo Med brand, and when we got this rock, I made sure to watch her when she used it. I figured if the one covered by sand was burning her, the direct touch one might also. Just a few minutes ago, she got onto it for the first time. I watched her get on the rock and start shaking her leg that was on it, so I took her off right away. When I touched the rock, it was extremely hot. I do not recommend this to anyone, and I strong suggest that you do not purchase it. I will see tomorrow if it burnt her but still. Your reptiles will not move, even though they are being burnt. This has been proven and you can also ask vets about it. Keep your reptiles safe!
No, I do not recommend this product.

Does this need a thermostat? Looking for use in my 10 x 12 greenhouse for local heat.
- I do not think you can regulate the temperature of these heater rocks. They just get plugged in and get hot.. Not sure how you can attach a thermostat to it.. You may be able to record the ambient temperature of your green house and then unplug or plug in accordingly.. Hope this was helpful??

So im planning on getting a baby ball python from the petco store would this be a good choice to buy and ive never had a snake before
- Rock heaters are known to burn animals, do not put this in your tank with a baby ball. I use heat lamps they are the best way to maintain the temp in your tank
