Ball python heating help

[Homebody]

A little update i turned off the halogen bulb. im only running the DHP on a thermostat.

I also moved her hot hide so its directly under the DHP. Here are the results

Surface temp of basking spot 90 (with infrared gun)
hotside air temp 84 (just outside the hide with govee and temp prob)
Coolside temp right outside his hide 82 with govee and temp prob

i also turned off the the light for the plants and no change in temp. any other suggestions?

Im debating making those vent holes but i really dont want make holes if i dont have too

Give it time. A day. Even a week. If the temps don't are still too high, put the spacer between the enclosures that Malum suggested and see what that does.
