Continue to Canada siteKeep your reptile pal nice and warm with the Zoo Med Repticare Rock Heater. Made of a hydrated rock material that is twice as strong as cement or pumice, it’s ultra-durable and conducts more heat for your pals. Because the nichrome heater is completely encapsulated, it distributes heat evenly so there are never any hot spots. It’s designed to be used as a secondary heater to help reptiles digest food, and is perfect for many medium size species of snakes and lizards like pythons, boas, kingsnakes, rat snakes, gopher snakes, bearded dragons, monitor lizards, tegus and more. Plus, it’s cUL approved for safety so it’s safe to use at home and uses only 15 watts of power.

So far so good. I was nervous about the reviews but they are not too hot. My tortoises seem to like the heat. I do feel the heaters every day to make sure they don’t get too hot. My last set of rock heaters got really hot ( bought from another company)
I repeat DO NOT USE. these are extremely dangerous and can burn your reptile. Reptiles do not feel heat the same way that humans do. It gets way too hot and they cannot tell the difference. Place a piece of slate under your basking light instead.
Our bearded dragon "Wilma" loves this heated rock. She will spend a few hours at a time warming herself. It seems to make her a bit more perky and active.
This heat rock gets a little too hot in my eyes and wish it had come with a setting where u could adjust it lower. But it does make a good rock for my beardie to just lay on while basking under his real lights. So that's what I'm gonna use it for and just won't have it plugged in. Make sure you read the directions and put that definitely in their cold side if you are going to be plugging it in..bc I can see why they warn you about it bc with how hot it gets in their cold side..it could seriously burn your buddy.
I purchased 2 rocks and neither of them heat up at all ! Waste of money
This is just what I needed for my snake. I use it with a thermostat and it stays a toasty 82°
This item is useless not worth the money I spent on it.. wish I didn't buy
Didn't work!!! Do not recommend. I throughout the box and packaging without trying it. I don't know why I did this, but I did. Do not buy this. I don't blame the site, I blame the product. And didn't even try to contact to return or get a refund.
Bought this heat rock for my ball python, and it worked only for 1 week!! DO NOT RECOMMENDED!!!!
Heat rocks can't be regulated, and are known for regularly lighting on fire. They cause burns to animals, and short circut regularly. Don't buy.
