We are going to try again but afer reading your replys and some other threads were gonna revamp the setup to better care for the snake. I don't know if the pet store will even give me another one but after what you all said notsure if I should even go that route. What do you think? If a breeder who do you recommend? Thanks again all of you.,
Without a thermostat your UTH's temps can reach upwards of 120*. Far to high for the snake, could also be the problem you are having. I recommend atleast a dimmer switch from Lowe's or Home Depot if not an actual thermostat. You have to have something to regulate the heating pad. Good luck with your next snake!
