I have my Ball Pythons in a room of their own, and the room's temp is 79-80 degrees, There is a good fan in the room and the temperature is even throughout (top to bottom). Each tub (41Qt) has a hot spot provided by 4" flexwatt @ 89-90 degrees.

I have 2 females, 1 Pastel and 1 Albino that I see almost every time I walk into the room on the cold side. I have actually seen the Albino squashed against the cool side wall as if to say "It's too hot in here"... but at only 80 is it? I'm cautious about lowering the ambient temp to 78, although I have heard of others doing so.

What are your thoughts?
