Ball Python Room Ambient Temperature Worries

[Slick Serpents]

So i know the ambient temperature for BP's should be 80-85 F, however i am unable to sustain this. The best i can get is Daytime low 84 daytime high 87. Is this alright? I do not want my pythons to be at risk. Thanks forum!

shouldn't have any problems.

That should be fine! Anything below about 75 is starting to get worrisome.

I may not be understanding right, but you seem to be saying that you want the ambient temperatures to be between 80 - 85, but right now they are too HIGH, at 84 - 87, correct? Do you live in a part of the world where it is hot at this time of year?

What are the temperatures at night time?

I use a space heater, so i can achieve all of the other temperatures just fine. The part of the world i live in right now is on average 60 degrees F. So not warm by any standards. I am saying that yes i would like my temps to be 90-95, but they are 94-97. I'm only wondering if this is alright form my ball pythons.

Connect your heater to a thermostat so it heats to the proper temps.

I have a Lasko heater from Walmart. About $50-55. Works wonders !! I set temp in the morning and it maintains it till I change it. I keep it on 84 during the day. And drop it to 75 at night.

PS...... DO NOT PLUG THIS ONE INTO ANY EXTENSION CORD OR THERMOSTAT!!!!

For my knowledge, why not?
