I am using Reptibark substrate, there is a half log on the cool side, and a corner water dish on the warm side. Today I went and bought the Accurite thermometer/hygrometer to measure temps/humidity and also bought a 75 watt infrared heat light and a 5 watt UTH. The temps at the moment are 79.9*/89.8*. Right now, I am messing with the dimmer that I bought so I can try to put it a little over 80/90. I also am going to try moving the UTH over towards the cool side more and see how that changes things. Humidity is still a little low at 47%, but I am going to wrap the back and 2 sides with saran wrap and some of the top to see where that puts it. I got a few pictures of the tank and snake too. I tried to see how long it was but it is still a bit uncomfortable around me and would not lay out straight. Moving around a little and sort of curvy, I was able to measure at least 17" so I am guessing around 19"?
That red light is bada$$! Can't even see it in the pic. In the pic, it was before I gave the UTH and light time to warm up but now that they are warm and temps are where they are, the snake is up and moving around! Since yesterday, he has just laid under the log and hasn't moved but those lights sure do make a world of difference. Thanks everyone for the advice.
