Too cold for Ball Python an boa babies

Left the house for 2 days window forgot to fully close.
Heat was still on but 3F outside.
Anyway. Meter shows Minimum in room was 48F. Hotspot on snakes was 78 (yes the heat cable couldnt deliver fully...
They seem fine. One ball python shaking a bit. Other than that seems ok.

So anything I should do in meantime? Other than check every snake at the vet which would be about 2k

I have never seen a BP "shake". I'd be pretty concerned if that's actually what it's doing.

Snakes are cold-blooded and therefore don't shiver to regain warmth so I agree that the shaking is unusual and something to pay attention to. Was the whole body shaking, the tail, or the head?

Make sure they get warmed up to the appropriate temperatures and look out for signs of an RI such as opening mouths, mucus around or inside the mouth, and elevating the head.

Just the head a bit.
Thank you

Ouch. Where do you live?

I guess only time will tell...sure hope they're OK.

Mee tooo! If I did that up here all my pipes would freeze!

Not sure what the head shaking means but it's better than the whole body shaking. Hope the snakes will be alright :(
