Make sure under the paper towels the temp isn't getting hotter then 94F and he should be fine mine does it all the time.

With a digital thermometer. Probe placed right on the bottom of tub over the uth. I use paper towel as substrate so the temp on top is just.about the same.

You should be fine but remember that the digital thermometers like the AcuRites have been known to be off a few degrees so it may be a good idea to pick a temp gun to double check.

Does the world burst into flames when its hot outside?
Joking aside, your snake will not burn unless the temps exceed 95* for a long period of time.

As long as temp on tub under towels is within range, you will be fine. My mojave prefers to be under the towels, as well as in his hide. That's where he always is. Weird little dude.
