    It's not as bad in person as that pic looks (light)
    I just wouldn't think the uth would have caused that big of a difference....
    I added it bring up belly temp after feeding but maybe it should have been on the same cycle instead of all the time. I should have called my buddy before I put in under there...
    It's HOT and humid here in the south and I run my AC wide open and it brings the ambient down in the cage.... so I thought this would be a good idea. Obviously not....
    He was basically in a sweat box I guess.... but I checked the floor temp often and it wasn't burn hot or anything...
    I will be upgrading my bulb tomorrow to keep ambient up I guess and the small UTH is now on the rear side behind the hide.
    No wonder he was pissy the other day.... I'm a bit embarressed over my ranting on that thread.
    But it's obvious I have access to a friend who knows his shiz and you guys help.
    Anyone else please feel free to jump in!
    More advice the better.......

    Let's hope this sheds off

    One question that I don't see anyone has asked is, how are you regulating the UTH? Do you have it connected to a thermostat/rheostat/dimmer of any kind? I know you said you have digital thermo, but I'm guessing you mean thermometer and not thermostat. Also, do you have a digital thermometer with a probe to measure the surface temp under the hide? While it may not feel too hot to you, it may be too hot for your snake...
