We are quickly approaching hurricane season... what do I do for heat and UVB if we lose power for Draco?

Gas powered generator, Battery pack with an inverter (for short periods), Heat packs &\or hand warmers, propane space heaters. All viable options. In cold weather, I have known keepers to house them in their running vehicles, when all else fails, to keep them warm. BDs can go a few days, a week, with no UVB in an emergency, generally without issue, heat would be your main concern.

Good Luck

Well, I live in FL. I don't think heat would be a BIG problem. maybe in the mornings and evenings, I'd have to add a hand warmer, but that'd be it. WE live in town now, so I doubt we would be without for more than a day or two. Thank you for the response.
