I'm curious now, what was wrong with the beer fridges, I'd been thinking of one, I don't know which to get either?

The one in your link is expensive to run and can't be set to a constant temperature?

I did a bit of an experiment with a mini fridge (borrowed) a few years ago, the temp would not remian constant at all and I didn't use it for hibernation in the end.
I now use my normal fridge as before and a Herp Nursery II for the extra few littlies that don't fit in the fridge.
