91 is trending towards too hot, especially if it's more than just a hot spot.
Haha, sorry, I meant that as my hotspot temp. My ambient is around 85.
Thank you for checking though!!

I don't think I would choose it for a snake, but I love them for my crested and leopard geckos.

Re: Exo Terra
I have duck tape that covers three of the 4 mesh screens on all 5 of my exoteras they maintain humidity perfectly, never goes below 50 and peaks throughout the day to 60% depending on the weather here, more rain higher RH.

Yeah, those are the tweaks I was referring to. It seems insane to me that they don't make them with "snake lids" that are designed for higher humidity species.
I wrap my glass enclosures in 1/2" foam board insulation to help with temp/humidity control. Goes a long way.

I live in a very humid place and so I usually have no problems with humidity. She was in a terrarium before the exo terra and so I haven't had changes, just a bigger enclosure
