  1. 35 to 45 degrees
  2. 70 to 80 degrees ✔
  3. 95 to 105 degrees

Why: The University of Florida gives 70 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit as an ideal range. Keep the cage out of the direct path of air-conditioning and heating vents.

Huh, didn't know that: A steady safe temperature matters more than placing the cage beside a vent for quick warming or cooling.
