Brrrrr! That's pretty cold for gliders. I think the best temperature range for glider is 70-85 degrees...they can get sick or sleep too much otherwise.
We keep our house at about 72 degrees. I think there are cage heaters you can get, also, if you just want to warm them up.

: I'm a new owner, living in Canada - it's below freezing all the time this time of year. We keep our house fairly warm, but not overly. I decided to house the sg's in the recroom, first testing the temp. and finding it the same as upstairs. My question is - will they adjust to any temperature? Will they get sick? It's never really cold, it's usually consistent, but probably around the 60 degree mark. Also, what about light. Not too much sunlight comes in there, should I leave a light on during the day so they can adjust? Thanks.
