HELP unhealthy heat and humidity problem

Question Jotay said that my hot side should never get below 90. But everyone else I have read said that the temp should fall at night to 70 or right at it. Doesn't the temp fall at night in their natural enviroment.. I am confused

they dont HAVE to drop, but if they do, than its ok becasue yes, they do drop normaly

i have a black light for a heat source, perffect temps, perfect humidity, and i leave it on all night and all day, so it might drop to 86*, but not lower than that

70* is too low for a hot side, the cool side can go to that at night, maybe a lil higher, like 75

yeah my hot side only drops maybe one or two degrees at night because my apt cools off when the sun goes down. the cool side gets no lower than 75-76. you still have to provide the same heat as you would during the day, its just that it is ok for it to drop a little but because it does drop naturally at night.

ok i have a black light that I can try tonight. thanks for the input. I dont remember having this trouble with my geckos temps. of course they don't need the type of exact temps and all that balls do

Check out the Ball Python Care Sheet here on this website, under Heating and Humidity.
70 is to low especially with no temp higher for them to go to if they feel the need.
Low temps and humidity above 60 could spell a possible RI
I don't think where they come from in the wild drops to many nights pass the low 70's
They like a little heat :)

Yeah, a night time drop is not required - but if it does drop than I'd go no lower than 75 on the cool side and still maintain a temp gradient of 5-10 degrees between the two sides. I just think it's important to always give them a choice of temps. My temps drop 1-2 degrees - only because it's night time.

Jotay - how's the new bp doing?

TG,
He is doing great! He is finally settling in and knows I am not a danger.
He is a sassy little guy and eats like a pig
And so very nosey, he is way different than Ozzy
Gonna be needing a bigger cage for him soon :)

mine says its 100 on the hot side, i feel the pad and it actually doesnt feel too hot it just feels pretty warm, is 100 ok ?

that's too high. it shouldnt get over 94-95.
