    Night drops

    If you program your thermostat for a nighttime drop for your ball pythons, what temperature do you set it at? Is there any true benefit of doing this for a bp? My VE200 allows me to program one and I've been toying with the idea. Just wanted to hear your guys' thoughts.

    You want your temperatures to be constant the more consistency and the less variant the better it will be for your BP, in captivity they do not tolerate change in husbandry well (that includes temp fluctuations) and if you do not provide consistency you will have issues.
