    My sand boa will change sides because of temperature. My balls don't do that as much.

    Your temps and humidity seem fine, I think he just likes to rest his chin on things. Again, he'll do what's best for him, so if he needs to be warm that's probably why he's going over to the warm side.

    My ball was notorious for laying rapped around her water bowl and just propping her head up. Not so much anymore now she loves her cold hide SOOOOO much lol. I did catch her laying in her basking spot today though all sprawled out :D.

    My temps like mirror yours.
    Hot: 89.2 90 high
    Cold: 82
    Humidity: i spray so it goes from 60% then when it hits 40% i spray it down again i hate my heat lamp lol. I got to get my plexi glass top cut ASAP lol. although i do not mind spraying.

    Yah, My big normal girl seems to appreciate her big water bowl and sometimes dips just her head and neck, or she will prop her head on the side like that! Your temps are good, your snake is eating well, you are fine.
