    I just checked the temperature in her cage and it's right around 90. I think I'll try that.

    I have a question about heating too.

    Is it ok to leave the blue moonlight light on all night?
    it keeps the temp about 80-85 86 plus the UTH at night.
    During the day..it gets about 90-95 100..is that to high?
    Also...my bp likes to sleep in his hide on the cool side all the time
    no matter how cold or hot it is, he does have 2 little hide things on both
    sides. Is there somthing wrong?

    Well...once again I say I am NO expert, but here's what I've learned so far:

    It's fine to leave a night lamp on all night, in fact in colder months it could be recommended.

    95-100 is too hot. If you don't already have a thermostat (I forget if I saw you say that or not here) Get One! :) In the meantime have the UTH on a rheostat to keep those numbers closer to 90.

    My little girl spends about 90% of her time in the cool side too. I know she moves over from time to time cause I see the trails in the cypress. You probably just don't see yours move over, but they do. It's like they know when you're not around...
