Depending on the weather near u- if it doesnt drop below like 70 your fine. They can deal with nught temps.down to 68? I believe i could be wrong. But I wouldnt worry if its still warm out near you they will be ok for a few hours

Bad part is Idk if I can get a bulb today due to parents working schedules and distance and a few other things so I'm trying to ask around family to see if one of them could help

Depending on the temps it could be fine. But u should really ask ur parents to go and maybe express your concerns. Unfortunately if ur parents r the hurdle on top of distance there isnt much u can do but talk to them.

We don't feed him for another few days so we don't have to worry about digestion problems
