Everything Bogertophis said above is dead on.
Also.
"96F and cooling down." What does that mean? That's getting dangerously hot.
Hot spot should be no more than 90F - as checked with a proper temp gun.
80 ambient is ok. I would shoot for 80-83F and a 78-80F cool spot.
Also, BP's like humidity about 60%. 70% is ok for shedding, but not ideal long-term. Too high can be detrimental in a BP, as can too low.
I would aim for 60%, give or take, with 70% or so when in shed.
