    Temperatures - How do you like it?
    Fellow snake keepers!

    This may sound like a basic question. I got 6 snakes in a rack that I built my self. I got the plans from americanmadeexotics.com. It is a very good 41 q rack, I have no complaints about it. I got a herpastat and 11 inch heat tape hooked up. I was running my day time temp at 93, and my night time at 91. I have since lowered the temp, because my butter had gotten a little scale rot (he's on antibiotics, and doing fine). Since my humidity is around 55%, I was thinking the temps were too high. Can you guys and gals let me know the temperatures you keep your ball pythons at.

    Thanks

    87/88 degree hot side. 78-80 degree cool side. Ambient temp is usually 75-78, never gets lower than 72.

    Now am doing 90 day 88 night. My ambient temp is 80 at night up to 85 in the day, but I expect that to drop now that it's winter.
