    The UTH is too small and should be covering probably 1/3 of the cage. If I were you I would have gotten my flexwatt and heating in my rack settled first and gotten another snake afterwords.

    You just need a bigger UTH. Tubs hold heat extremely well, so just get warm side to the right temp with a thermostat and it should be fine. I have to use a secondary heater in the room since it's cold here now. Good luck!
