.. All thermometers are up to 3 degrees off. With that said 91 is always the MAX you want any hot spot to read. Doesn't matter why or how the temp is reaching this 91, but that is max so its best to set it to 88/89 because thermometers are already off up to 3 degrees. So if its reading 88/89 and off by 3 it could be 91./92. On the other hand if its off by 3 and you have it 91 then it could be 94 which is to hot... Lower the temp.
I know those and my hot spots are 86~89 measured by temp gun. But my question was that, the snake was on the hot spot hide and I saw it moved to the cool spot. I instantly measured the bottom of the tub where the snake was laying on and it measured at 94~95 degrees. I was asking if it should go up like that after snake was laying on it? because when I didn't have snake, it was perfectly at 86~89 degrees. Is it suppose to go up because snake is on there? if so, should I lower thermostat even more? other parts of hot spot is perfect except for when snake lays on it for long time.
