I'm sure in the wild their temperatures fluctuate more than the 10-12 degree range we try to keep most species in and 94 isn't in a range that will cause burns when they still have plenty of other areas to thermoregulate themselves. Here is how I have my guys shelf right under the rhp. He thought he was coming out but is frequently half on, half off the shelf.

    Thank you, I needed to Wake up .
    Sense I have your ear, what is the aprox temp of the floor of your cool hide area. Im 80 to 82. I read something by Bob Clark the other day who I got my first Burms from in the 90’s and he said Mid 80’s and that you can have a Basking area of 100 to get your mid 80’s ambient. I wouldn’t be comfortable with 100 degrees on the Hot side.
    For the first 10 years of my other Burms lives my husbandry was terrible compared to what it is now with the new products we have access to. Hot Rocks and Heat Mats are all I used and ambient wasn’t a concern. I feel terrible about that now but they were healthy hardy Burms without any illness
