My question is if you only have one and have it at the front, what if your flexwatt is at the back? (as most people do, to my knowledge) Doesn't this mean your heated spot is gonna be open? Would a bp still feel secure there? If that makes any sense.
One thing I have noticed after switching to unprinted newsprint, is that the snakes can "slide" the hides to where (I assume) they want them. When I clean the CB-70 tubs I put a single cat pan hide in, and by the next morning most of the girls have slid the hide just off the hot spot. I noticed some then will move to the hot spot for a while, and then back to the hide. I have one girl that loves to sit right over the heat, but refuses the hide. She will "push" her hide clear to the front, or at least as far as the water dish will allow.
