I know that with my CHE and UTH combined that it gets too warm, but I have a Helix thermostat to keep things at the right temps.
Also, once you get things situated, Ball Pythons don't require any source of light, they would actually prefer it to be dim. The natural light cycles that occur in your room should be enough for him/her.

my mom likes a cold house ( I have no idea why) and so im having a hard time keeping my daytime temperature with the light around 90 (even though i live in texas)

My ambient room temperature is probably 72 24/7..


my friend said i can have his CHE.. should i just replace my bulb with that?

ugh i just checked my temperature and the Warm side is 79...

i need to get a thermostat but as of now i have a heat pad 24/7 and a timer for my light which is about 12/12
