My Hatchling Is Finally Eating, But Is He Emaciated?

I'm seriously hoping I'm reading this wrong, because your hot spot temp should be closer to 90°, with 80° being a better choice for ambient temperatures.

Oh nope you're reading it perfectly correct and nothing to rustle your jimmies over. Actually in Benin right now it's 75°F so if you think 80°F is bad you better start praying for all the native ball pythons in Benin.

P.S: I have my thermostat set to 85 so it fluctuates from 80 to 85 it just on average is normally around the lower 80's.
