you're going to need two identical hides, otherwise you might find your snake roaming around which is a sign of stress, especially with a light shining in their face all day. that log doesn't look big or secluded enough for the snake to feel secure, but i could be wrong.

ALL sources of heat MUST be regulated. do you have a thermoSTAT/lamp dimmer for all sources of heat? you never state how you measure hotspot temps: a probed thermometer or laser temp gun are good ways to monitor them.

and yes, she's very pretty. congrats!
Yeah, whoops. I didn't even open the link, I thought it was a different sticky that had the layout of like 4 or 5 different thermometer probes, with the mat on the bottom. Anyway, in this link, I don't understand what the difference is between the thermometer probe taped under the tank above the UTC and the probe placed inside the tank over the UTC.
