    Thumbs down Re: Temps?

    JOE I have to go to work soon, and I don't know what to do. . . why would they say 88-90 if it wasn't true? I'll adjust the dimmer, but I wont be here to monitor it. . . are they going to get sick!?!?

    Sorry to be a pain, I'm just really worried

    It might have been a slip when they posted that info.It should not hurt them if you lower it before you leave for work.I did send Judy a pm.Relax its only a short time the temps were at 90 just like a hot summer day .

    Re: Temps?

    I've been under the assumption from reading various breeder sites that the temps should range from 75-80 on the cool side and low to mid 80's on the warm. I'm again assuming that mid means 84-86. 80 as a hot spot seems a little low to me, but I'm not an expert

    I keep my corns at the hot spot in the 80ish range all year long.Several breeders that tought me do the same range of the temps.I have found some of the "old stuff" is totaly differant compared to the info now.I am not saying they are liers its just things change.

    No, not 90's mid 80's (84-86). Check out their sites and caresheets. I keep mine at 84-86. I've had no problems. It seems many people have differing opinions on cornsnake temps. I guess this is why they're highly recomended as a beginer snake.

    Well see your temps are not really to far from what i keep mine at .I thought they stated that there corns were kept at 90dg temps .Another thing that i do differantly is i never cool down my corns before breeding.
