    Should I trust my thermostat, air thermometer, or infrared thermometer?

    As you may already know ... the trouble with that reading is that it may not be the temp of the Viv surface where your snake is lying ... that's the crucial temp best taken with a digital heat gun or a thermometer with a wired probe ...

    So , of course the fridge one will only give an ambient air temp ( and a rough one at that possibly as they're not generally very accurate ) .
