Again BW spoken like a true idiot, have you read Mark's book? Have you spoken to the people I have? Do you think because you write some venomous book you have all the answers? I told you I am investigating this, if I was as silly as you and only relied on what personal observations I have I can tell you the hot basking spots I provide cause no harm.
I have provided literature for surface temps in excess of 120F and have much more of that. these animals do use these surfaces and odds are it is to aid in these large meals.
Again you have yet to PM me, what is it you are so afraid of? I could give you names and sources of people who have given me references and are currently helping me.
Why don't you put your money where your mouth is and give me one example these animals are scorched in their native environment or burned to a crisp by these surfaces. How about just regular observations by a keeper?
"I've taken a temp gun out and found Yellow Belly Racers basking at temps of 128F (I'm sure they can and do bask at higher temps. I've also seen Western Fence Lizards, bask at temps close to 135F at my old job site"
I can play the apologetic game as well and poke holes in your petty argument. By all means show me field research about thermal burns, or regurgitation.
