ALWAYS on cool side
I know there are other threads about this, but none that I found in the Boa forum. Since I have had my BCI I have NEVER seen her on the warm side of her enclosure. The cool side/ambient temp is about 82 and the warm side ground temp is about 91. Other than the temp, the sides are identical. She is also ALWAYS burrowed under her aspen shavings. Anyone else have this issue? Seems like a waste of half a cage

Re: ALWAYS on cool side
Has anyone seen my boa? I'm afraid she may be cold.

It is about 82. She just never wants to go near the warm side which is probably 91 or so...

Re: ALWAYS on cool side
Yeah, I guess 82 is good, but I was just kinda wondering if there was ever any NEED for them to be warmer. She seems to be doing great though, grew 2" last month and 2" the month before...that just amazes me.

My BRB is only on the warm side of her cage a day or two after she eats. The rest of the time she is haging out under her cool side hide.
