I'm getting different readings on my various temperature reading methods. Which should I trust more?
Here are the stats for my cool side:

  • Thermometer inside the hide: 75
  • Thermostat set to: 85
  • Infrared thermometer pointed at the cage floor (newspaper): 76
  • Infrared thermometer pointed at the snake: 78
  • Infrared thermometer pointed at the roof of the hide (plastic): 76
