Temps are consistently measured by a gauge on each side and one in the middle that doubles as a hydrometer. I check the hotspot with a temp gun whenever I go to change his water + general maintenance which is typically every day or two. He has a hide in the hotspot which is a cork log he fits in pretty well, it's hard to find an example of it since it isn't a consistent product like the half log hides. Ill post pictures of the set up + hides soon. He has another cork log, one side of which is blocked off since it's pressed against the wall, the third is something similar to the plastic ones you linked since those work as humid hides better for me. He has a hide on each side of the enclosure and the humid hides is closer to the hot side but more center oriented. He can also hide under his cork logs if he feels like it. He sleeps under his cork log sometimes, and his half log but almost never the humid hide. He may be getting too big for them? This is new as in he's only very rarely done this until this week. I got him as a yearling so he's grown quite a bit, but definitely not huge, on the smaller side for his age I'd say. Getting new hides is probably best though since he's such a good eater and is bound to grow a bit.
