What temps for snake after meal
What temp and humidity should the snake be at when digesting its meal for a few days? my humidity is around 50% but I hear that the Fluckers digital thermometers could be off by as much as 10% if true what thermometer would be a better buy. And also if I need to increas humidity whats one good way, I have a tank thats mostly wood besides the front which is glass. Thanks

Re: What temps for snake after meal
Your temps should not change - they should always be the same, whether digesting food or not. 82-84 on the cool side, 92-94 on the warm side - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Your humidity is fine.
I like the AcuRite digital thermometer that you can pick up at Walmart.

Re: What temps for snake after meal
My BP seems to like the cold side the most especially at night hes always underneath the tree but my cold side ranges from 86 to 88 usually.

It's about $12. Takes a AAA battery (not included). You might want to lower your cool side a few degrees.

Re: What temps for snake after meal
Remember to measure your temps at the floor level, and not up a couple inches. I use that same model as well.

This particular model measures two temperatures and the general humidity. This allows you to measure the warm and the cool side temperatures and humidity of the tank.
I'm not sure that I'm understanding correctly... you have two digital thermometers on each side of the enclosure?

Don't worry, I made the same mistake when I started out.
