    Whats your temp gradient?

    I've always wondered what the different temp ranges were that people have been successfully keeping bps at. I know that many people use temps that fall outside of the 82-84 cool and 92-94 hot.

    I personally find myself using two different temps in the summer and winter. Mostly because of my current living situations but none the less they work for my snakes.

    Summer

    80-82 cool, 90-92 hot

    Winter

    78-80 cool, 90-92 hot

    Whats your gradient?

    Re: Whats your temp gradient?

    Summer: 94-95 hot, 84 cool, ambient in room 80-83
    Winter: Big rack cools down to 80 cool/85 warm for 16 hours, back to 95/84 for the remainder. Ambient in room is 77-81 depending on if the heater was needed or not. Smaller racks(32/16qt and 6qt baby racks) are constant at 94-95 warm and 82-84 cool.

    All of mine ate throughout winter except for one 900g female who I bought in December. She's not in the snake room and is just in a 32qt tub on the floor.
