Healthy Habitat Cleaner and Deodorizer

No. If your snake crawls under those paper towels, he can be harmed by temps. that high. PLAN on snakes getting under any substrate, & never allow the floor for a BP to exceed 89-90* for safety.

i move my thermostat down to 98 from 100....
so get my plastic at about 89-90, and of course with paper towels it will read much lower, But better be safe, then sorry, like you said, What if she crawls under the towels?

This looks great! I'm assuming that the phone rotated the image or something, and you meant left from where you would be standing (top in how it posted). Glad you got the temps adjusted at bit. I found that even with hides, sometimes mine would crawl under the towel. You may have to mist more frequently during that quarantine part with paper towel but it makes it so much easier to see if there is a problem.

my humidity sits Over 50% pretty solid with a 13oz water dish, and adjusting my thermostat from 100 to 98 seems to put my hot at 89 to 91, with no paper towels, Then with paper towels, it reeds about 88 to 87....
will these number work? cause i will be using towels for a while.....

Cool Side sit's at 78 to 80

For those of us that take in rescues, sometimes you get one that's very dehydrated- you know, kept without water, either because a clueless owner thought snakes don't drink water or they were too lazy to provide it. Also, if you have a snake that regurgitates, or if you need to tube-feed, it can be useful. Most people don't need to stock it though.

Snakes drink water, & also get some water from the bodies of their prey, but usually their excrement minimizes the amount of liquid they release in order to conserve water in their bodies. Remember that many snakes survive harsh environments (such as deserts) so instead of urine, they expel chalky semi-moist lumpy-looking stuff called "urates" (usually off-white but may have some other colors too, yellowish or greenish, etc), plus the fecal material (brown) that's more solid. Their excrement is similar to what birds do, in case you've never noticed those white splatters along with brown feces that birds leave.

Forced hydration. I like to keep it on hand even though it isn't something I need often. It's great for those emergencies that aren't so severe that they warrant paying the premium to see an emergency vet until you can get them in to a normal herp vet.
