Well currently im keeping my ball python which is roughly two feet long now in a 16 quart tub. I have zilla thermostat and I put the probe underneath the snakes warn hide and set it for 90 degrees. I also have a thermometer with a probe underneath the hide also. The problem im having is the tubs overall temp is in the upper to mid 70's even though inside the hide it 90 degrees. should I just turn the thermostat up until the overall temp of the tub reaches the 80's even though the hide temps might be in the 100's? My substrate is paper towels by the way. Sorry for the long post lol
