<\/div>[vc_column_text]One of the main characteristics of reptiles is that they are poikilothermic or cold-blooded animals.<\/span><\/span> This means that their body temperature depends on the environment, since they lack mechanisms to regulate it.<\/span><\/span> This is extremely important when it comes to providing our pet with an environment with the ideal temperature to obtain the optimal body temperature in which the reptile’s vital functions can develop perfectly.<\/span><\/span> We can offer these ideal conditions in captivity using ceramic lamps, infrared lamps, mercury vapor, metal halide lamps, mats, etc.<\/span><\/span> Do not hesitate to ask us for guidance on how to create a perfect captive environment for your reptile!<\/span><\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”922″ alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” img_size=”full”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1694518140894{padding-top: 8% !important;padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;background-color: #f2f2f2 !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1694023229140{padding-right: 5% !important;padding-left: 5% !important;}”]
