Re: Where Does ReptiTemp Probe Go?
That's a bit far away from where the snake is IMO. I would switch them up again to get the most accurate readings and control.

I see your point. Me, I'd imagine the best place for it is directly touching the glass base, beneath the newspaper and bark substrate, to get an accurate reading. But the Acu-Rite probe is on top of the bark, where BP lies, and based on that reading I've been adjusting the thermostat. Am going for 92-94 degrees.

UTH
thermostat probe
glass
thermometer probe
substrate
snakey snake
