    Great lookin snake!
    He looks to be in shed, bump up the humidity, you might have a problem with the humidity because you are using a heat lamp. And tanks cant keep humidity worth crap :P
    Try covering up half of the screen with tinfoil to help keep humidity in.

    yea he was in shed. And yes i do have a problem with humidity AND temp control with that tank... I want to get a wood or other type one that can fit on that stand maybe a little taller that isnt glass but i havent found one yet. :(

    And i have tried that trick but with a heavy towel. does tin foil work better?? I have a 100W heat bulb and a undertank heater and the temps are still off.

    Try covering the back and sides of the tank to give him added security as well. As was stated above, get an heating pad and thermostat to heat the tank and cover the screen with foil. Also get rid of the heat lamp as they kill humidity.

    Ok. I have a undertank heating pad i already posted that. Someone mentioned getting foam to cover the sides and back to help with heat? what kind of foam should i use?? And I will do the tinfoil trick tonight when I get home.
