Re: Best thermometer/hygro positions ?
Thermometer probe right on the glass where the UTH is.
Thermometer on the cool side an inch or two above substrate.
Hygrometer an inch or two above substrate in center of tank.

OH?I put mine in all the wrong spotsI guess. I put mine up top, on the back wall, 7 inches above the substrate, l where he sits all the time on his second level.

second level? Ball pythons are terrestrial snakes and should have a ground based enclosure.

Look at my thread..."Why Does Alexander...?"
There's pictures of him and where he's sitting right now. He won't stay downstairs. I put him in his den and he goes right up top to level two. Last night after he ate he stayed below where he probably caught Mickey to sleep it off.
This is going to sound stupid but though he was in with other baby balls, could he be a regular python. I've never seen him ball up at all at the shop or at home. And he likes high stuff.

if you have a glass tank i would suggest not putting the gauge on the side tank because the glass can be significantly colder then the hot spot or the ambient temperature. i would suggest keeping the gauge in the middle of the cool end on the substrate with the probe on the hot spot

So this model takes the temp of the spot of the device and the probe?
