Maybe it's just a unique behavior your tic is doing? I would check the heating in the setup and made sure that the number's were right? Before it get's to cold from the winter. That's just me.
Hopefully it's just something unique that she does. The heater keeps my bedroom from dropping below 70 but inside of the cage she's got a 100 watt basking light and 2 uth's the. main one she uses is set at 88-89 (surface temp) and the one in the middle of the tank is set at 85 (surface as well) so she's got near perfect husbandry. I just was curious if anyone else had snakes that seem to stare into the sun.
