Ball pythons cool side too cold

Hi, my ball pythons cool side is too cold(65 degrees Fahrenheit). The hot side is about 33degrees Fahrenheit. What can I do to increase the temperature of the cold side. Any suggestions?

Did you make a typo on your hot side temp? Because 33 Fahrenheit is barely above freezing. Did you mean Celsius or was the hot side supposed to be a different value?

Anyways, I think we need more details about your set up before we can help.

Sorry 33degrees celsius

This is my ball pythons cage, right side is the cool end and the left side is the hot end

Need to raise ambient room temp, or supplement your heat. Will need to keep an eye on humidity

Could we get more specifics? What are you using for heating and is it regulated? What type and size enclosure do you have? What is your ambient room temperature?

I am using a heat mat, I plan to get a thermostat soon. I have a vivarium

Ok, so the heatmat will only provide you a hot spot and it will not do anything for your ambient temps which is why your cool side is too cold. You will need another heat source that offers more of a heat gradient/ambient such as a CHE.

Please get a thermostat asap as your snake could get burned.

Ok will do

BTW, what is a CHE

Most heat mats don't do that great of a job. Look at getting actual heat tape.
Che=ceramic heat emitter.
Pick up one of the cheap digital accurite temp/humidity gauges. If it's a standard glass tank you can cover part of the lid to keep in temps and humidity.

CHE = Ceramic Heat Emitter. It's a type of bulb that emits only heat.

Oh ok thanks

Che is a ceramic heat emitter. Or ceramic bulb.

Radient Heat Panels are another good choice to bring up ambient temps.
