Highly suggest you get an accurate digital thermometer (aka "temp gun"), your hands won't do it. Reason: we're roughly 98.6* so unless the snake's home is hotter than that, it feels cool to us- when it's actually WAY too hot for your snake! You NEED an accurate thermometer..."yesterday".
And fyi, 75* ambient in the enclosure is too cool for a BP- when they're too cool, their immune system doesn't function well & they can get seriously sick with things they've already been exposed to. Temperatures are critical for successful snake keeping- it's your responsibility to get it right, since the snake is your prisoner & cannot seek out the conditions its body needs to digest & function properly. Snakes aren't like other pets- their bodies cannot make their own warmth to function- it's up to us to provide them.
10/4, I'll get one.
what temp should his enclosure be to get it right? and any suggestions to raise it?
