    Anyway to heat up?
    Well i've got a infa red bulb on the way but how can i heat up the cool side while i wait? It just got colder here and the cool end has dropped to 75F which is unhealthy.Also i have the thermometer on the substrate.

    UTH hooked to a thermostat. No light bulb. Screen top tank?? Cover 3/4 of the top with something to help hold in heat and humidity.
    75 is a little cool. As long as the hot spot is 90 or so the snake will move to where it wants to be.
