Some temp advice for a new blood python owner

[nikkubus]

Thanks a bunch for the advice this forum is so much more helpful then a lot of the other readily available information gathering sites out their like reddit and the like. This is my first python I’ve had I’m used to colubrids who’s care is leagues different. Sounds like I’m not as far off as I thought I was I’ll keep doing some tweaking until everything is in order.

Far too many people giving bad advice out there. Glad your BS alert went off in your head. Most of the time they will thermoregulate, but it's not terribly uncommon for a BP to burrow to hide regardless what the temps are, even when they have hides in there. I could see the actual hotspot on the floor of the enclosure getting 110-120 easy to get the ambient temps some people are recommending.
