Do you mean reostat, like a dimmer switch?


So you now have something to measure both the heat tape and the inside of the tub?

yes! yea i have one on the heat tape and i put one in the tub like 10 min ago


right now its at 101 on the heat tape and 90 in the tub

The reason I asked about your set up is because most young BPs are not prone to hunger strikes unless there is a problem with the husbandry. Very different for adult BPs, since they can be apt to stop eating at any time, and especially during breeding season.

With young BPs, it's usually a husbandry issue.

i said hemostat LOL HAHAHA .....ok but i have my other snakes in the same rack and they are doing good

Thermostat will help settle your problems if the temps fluctuate too much it will cause the snake not to eat.


I set all my thermostats at 88-90 and i get a 88-90 in the tubs. Pickup a Temp gun to check temps in the tubs for fast readings.

My heat tape usually reads 89-92 but in the tubs its only 88-90.
