thats good. but the problem is that if the whole room is 88 then the snakes enclosure is at 88 without any cool area. 88 is plenty warm but the snake must have an area to cool down. i keep mine at 88-91 on the warm side and 76 on the coolest side. this is done in a room thats at 72 degrees. i use a UTH and a 40 watt bulb in a 20l size tank. even in an 80 degree room, with the 75 watt light on, im sure i ts climbing to 100 degrees or higher. that will=cranky unhappy and unhealthy snakes. i'd say your best bet is a therm. and temp regulation. i bet she calms right down.Originally Posted by Solstice
as for feeding in their tanks, i've done it for 20 years. never been bitten. the only times i've been struck at were when something funky had happened to temps(burned out bulb, worn out uth....)
