Cool, I only have one of those cheap analog ones while having digital thermometers/thermostat for the heat map..
Just shopping for a new one so looking for some suggestions
Re: Humidity Problem--Too High!
I read somewhere on here about using a rubber made container filled with moss. Can someone explain this to me cause I can't find the post. I keep moss in a section of the tank for humidity but thought the container thing sounded better and wanted to try it with my larger ball because I'm having a hard time with humidity in his tank. Thanks!

This humidity range is not too high. As long as the substrate is not wet / damp to the touch, you will be fine. This is a very common humidity range in summer months. It is actually lower than several native ball python habitats in Africa experience on a regular basis.

Scratch that idea lol he won't fit in any of my containers that could fit in his tank. He's a pretty big guy.

Essentially get a box of some kind (Tupperware or whatever fits your snake and you can cut), put moss in it, put snake in it. I have these as my guy's regular hides, which are leftover takeout containers from Milwaukee Burger Co, IIRC.

He's not feeling coming out since he's gone blue.
