Hi guys I got a question for a problem I kinda didn't even think about. Now I bought a 30-40g UTH for my 20g because it can get really cold during the winters here in Connecticut, but I forgot how hot it can get during our summers too lol.
Today was a little over 90 degrees outside and about 87-90 roomtemp inside. This causes my would-be cool side to not be so cool anymore lol. On hot days like this the ambient inside my tank is 88-90 throughout the entire tank so i'm worried about my future BP not being able to cool off during times like these. So I am just wondering what you guys do when you have days like this? Or do anything at all? I'm not sure what to do.

Also is distilled water ok to give a BP to drink? I bought some today thinking it would be good because it doesn't have the impurities like tap-water does that can harm your snake but I realized later that it wouldn't have the natural minerals that are actually good for you. Do any of you guys use distilled water?

Thanks for any help, I appreciate it! I want to be prepared as possible before purchasing my BP


oh yeah, one more side question ^_^' lol. How often do BP urinate on average? I Got a repti-carpet to use as a liner and was going to put some of at eco-earth stuff as substrate but as I was putting the carpet in I actually thought it looked really good on its own. Sorry for all the questions and Again THANKS for any help !!!!
