    Re: Back in it, but new house.

    Hey All!

    Thanks a lot for the feedback.

    I knew I left out some details and when I was reading your responses and
    realized I should have conveyed more so you have the whole picture.

    Speaking of picture here is the setup which will help as well.

    Also from a testing perspective I have temp and humidity gauges in all of the tubs and temp check with a temp gun daily to be extra cautious.

    To answer some of the questions yes I have two different heat sources (flex watt) with a temp controller that has two probes that allows me to set the temp for each probe.

    The ambient temp in the back of the tub is 80-82 and the front of the tub around 74ish.

    The hot spot with the Substrate (reptibark with paper underneath the reptibark). I’m using is about 88. In order to get it to 90 I’d have to set the belly heat probe to almost 105 and I saw some warning that said it should not reach a temp of 105 or 110 so it’s set at 100.

    I thought of the same idea with the hide boxes which would help keep in some of that heat. (Good idea)

    As far as snakes in the basement, not much I can do and I would think I’m not the only one that has had to deal with this issue.

    Just making sure the setup is safe (or safe as possible) and checking on them so that they are happy and healthy. I do quite a bit of checking and testing with the gauges and temp gun.
