    Re: Question about reading temps
    I am at work right now and can't wait to get home to readjust my settings. I am stressing out thinking I am overheating my snakes. But, they've been like this for awhile so I guess a few more hours shouldn't hurt. I hope and pray that if he gets too hot he will move to the cooler end. Isn't that what thermo regulation is all about.

    It's all good. Since he has the option of a cool-end, there's no reason to think he's not safe. It's when they can't escape those temps that it becomes a problem. Your snake knows how to snake and he'll take care of himself until you're home. :)

    Yep . That is correct . I guess some get it really wrong and even the cooler side is far too warm and they've nowhere to get cool .
