Is it an analog thermometer? If so they are usually really inaccurate. If it is a zoo med digital probe thermometer I have had ones 5-15 digress off. A good thermometer/hygrometer is the acurite 00891. Also what are you using as heat source and are you using a thermostat? Where do you have the thermometer placed?
