The snakes are in a room that is impossible to install AC in.
The ambient temps in there have been 85+ for the last week thanks to the 105 outside temps.
Their enclosures have hit 84-86 ambient even though their hot/cool spots are okay and the ones in tubs have 60-70% humidity.
[that scares me the most]
The best I've been able to do by them is run a box fan in the room to try and reduce the stifling humidity.
What do y'all do in situations like this?
One way or the other, I need to move them upstairs eventually to an unused room that's being used a 'useful junk repository' right now.
I can run AC/heat up there year round.
For now, though, they're stuck downstairs.
[my LR AC is set to 65 and cranking like mad with a fan blowing the 'cool' 27 feet over to where I sit and I'm still posting nearly naked. it is hot!!!]
Ever since the heat wave started, Leon the Spider has been restless and edgy.
Nothing else in his home has changed except the hot spell.
He's just shy of his first birthday and I'm wondering if 'puberty' [or whatever] isn't setting in, too.
He was always an eager little piggy eater and now he's 'particular'.
Are some BPs more touchy about being warm?
The local herp store guy keeps his shop sweltering, year round.
Am I worrying too much?
[coincendental to Alice's Great Escape, several of my snakes now seem to be 'testing' their lids...and all of them are on the exact path he took through their rack when he went a'viking. did he 'start trouble' by going free right by them?]
Sorry this is so rambling.
My brains are baked.
