im new on here nd to keepin snakes so bare with me lol. iv just brought the lucky reptile thermo control thermostat nd iv stuck the probe directly on the heat mat under the substrate (im using small chips so he cnt burrow down onto the bare heat mat)the problem is the temperature on the cool side is 63f ???? iv got the correct temp on the hot side 85f-30c so i dont want to turn up the thermostat up any more as it will get to hot on the hot side???
please help p.s my snake is not in this viv at the moment
I wouldnt worry too much basically as long as you have a thermal gradient and the warm end is at the right temp the snake will just move between the two as it desires room temperature at the cool end is usually fine mines usually around 21
