The Kaiju thread - CB17 female Pearl Burmese Python

[Valyrian]

A Conversion from Celsius to Fahrenheit on my phone says 35 Celsius is 95 Fahrenheit.. Thats to hot. The max is 91. There are all kinds of thing people say online, I can only Speak from the 2 burms Ive owned, A 24 yr old normal and a 21 yr old Albino this year.. I get my info from their Breeders who have 40+ years in business alone .
31C is 75F.. My lowest temp is 76 and thats only when its very cold at night here in NY, like Negative -10, otherwise my nighttime temp is 78 at night and 80 day on Coolside.
You can try what works best for you.. But I strongly suggest keeping your Hottest Temp 32/33C ( 91/91.5F) because of proven neurological problems from being too warm. A Burm will survive a cold temp much easier than a Hot temp.

I can see where you're coming from but those temps are directly over the basking area with the cold side going down to 24C at all times. So she can choose where she wants to be, giving her more options for thermal-regulation.

Bob Clark says here that even a basking area over 100F is perfectly acceptable as long as the snake can retreat to a cooler area if it chooses and he's been keeping burms for over 30 years. Even bred the first albinos in the hobby:
