    Temps sky high! Please help me control this!

    Holy crap! I took the infrared temp gun out this morning to check everybody. Under Cleo's heat lamp, her favorite hot spot is 87°. Lady's is 85°, as is Boots'. Eden's is 98°?! She is in a 24 L x 18 W x 12 H. I use a 75w Incandescent from petsmart and they said it was perfect for her cage but now I'm worried. She has been moving her hide out from under the lamp and NOW I know why. What can I do to help her? Is this too hot for her? Cool side read 84° for her cage.

    Side note, Cleo's cool side is coming to low seventies. Lowest I saw was 73°(water) and the ground was 76°...is this an okay cool side? Boots' was 83° and Lady's was 82°.
