Hello, thank you so much for responding, currently do not have a thermostat as I just got her and the stores around failed to carry it. One is currently en route to my house, and should be here tomorrow or the next day. I layer many paper towels above the pad but my best guess is she mustve snuck underneath it. Im currently using a hygrometer and thermometer combo. Always keep temp at 80 and humidity at 55%. Thank you also for that great advice, couldnt find much about a good home solution as I feel a vet visit would stress her out more than she already has been. Whenever I heard above mentioned clicking was after being handled for too long. Also could just be a crazy snake mama who worries too much. Regardless, I too thought it was the early stages of something, but more scale rot photos looked simmilar to her than burn photos although those photos showed pretty badly burned snakes.
Sidenote, I apologize for terrible formating, Im on my phone and it doesnt handle this page very well.
