Same here. They go right into a warmed tub in my q/t rack. I don't set the snake directly on the hot side, but it IS up to temps so if the snake feels the need it can go there immediately on its own. I wait 4 days and then feed (but I work with boas, so that's perfectly fine for them).
As others have mentioned, I also don't work with bloods, so this may be something that they are more sensitive to. Any blood owners/breeders want to chime in here??
