Spotted Python

I'm a new spotted owner, those temps/hum are higher then what I had read. I have been keeping mine between 88/77 during the day and slightly cooler at night. Should I bump my guy up?

Thank you, Novato!! Although most of the care sheets say they don't require humidity - when I read the link you gave on the other thread for antaresia.com (who didn't mention actual suggested temps or humidity at all for what I could find) but did say their habitat is forest, grassland, etc - that would suggest to me that they do like some humidity.

Most caresheets also say temps between 75-85 - but yours like it up to 92 degrees? That's interesting because most caresheets also say boas like temps only up to about 88 degrees - but mine often chooses the 90-92 degree area - and my BP definitely prefers cooler temps Now my BP is a big girl (4ft and maybe a little more) I'm going to upgrade her to a 4ft and add more hides so she gets more choice.

We are getting our new Spotted on Sunday - I wondered how fat they get when they're adult and at what age that might be. (I'm used to fat little BPs )
