I will definitely look into that. I am also going to check and see if the heatmat is even holding still. I remember that the guy at our reptile store, was telling us to use duct tape or something to hold the mat in place (Cause you can never remove it after you apply it) and we didnt have anything so we used masking tape, which I doubt holds up very well when heated.

I'll look into quite a few details, and hope that we can find a solution soon. I know he is prob fine atm, but I would like to ensure the health and longevity of our snake.

God knows I failed with fish. >.<
