not sure what you mean by "temp it" but I use I a digital therm w/probe to read it...I use a uth for the hot side and a space heater to keep ambient temps good...all in 28qt tub

All looks good, I'd keep it in there in case he uses it when you don't see... it hurts nothing by leaving it in

Is she older? All of my adult females are hanging out on the cool side right now. My cool side is 75-78, none have hides on either side. I wouldn't stress too much. Your cool side temps are plenty high for me to not worry about her. If your cool side was below 75 I would worry.

Whats weird is for the past 2 weeks she has not been on the hot side at all like i can't believe it i don't want to take her cold hide from her because i feel like it may stress her out

she is 1 and a half years old. It could be the season I'm just surprised that she would stay there because with the season its even colder sorta thing. My cool side varies typically its 75-78 like yours. lowest is 74 but it doesn't stay 74 long u know what i mean like sometimes at night it goes down to 74 ish

She just ate and yet still she remains in the cold side hide. She never leaves it and i just don't understand why. Is that normal?

How does one have a 1/2 lesser 1/2 normal specimen?

Some animals have particular individual habits, ask around and you find several animals that stay on the hot side.

Yeah mine stays in his hot side hide constantly. Only when roaming around he tends to stay on the cool side. He can be for days in his hot hide only moving around it's hide.

Is there any other possible difference between the hot/cold side that she would prefer one over another? Different hides and she feels more secure in the cold one? That's also an option.

If temperatures are as they should be and the humidity is the same on both sides then I wouldn't worry too much it's just what she prefers apparently ;)

My females are all hanging out in the cool side now too. My name is moving around normally (snakes are in a rack with warm side at 91, cool side 79, ambient 82
