Hides?

[deathangel579]

Is it normal for them to chill outside of the hide rather than in? My UTH is under this hide and he wont go inside. He would rather lay ontop under the heatlamp.

The entrance seems a little small. Can he comfortably get inside without struggling?

Is he showing any signs of stress like not eating? What are the temps in your tank?

I got him tuesday. So i havent fed him yet. But the entrance is plenty big. I just have it turned and this is the angle of the pic. My temps are 79-81 on cool side. And 88-92 on hot

Different angle

On the side is a peice of cardboard that was in the box holding the tank. Was on the corners of the tank. Its too small for him but he likes to lay partly under it sometimes

We need to verify the temp in the hide.

Without a IR temp gun I suggest lowering the temp and see if your snake starts to use the hide.

Is your UTH regulated at all? If the UTH is just plugged into the wall chances are its running too hot for your snake.
