Hi guys.
I've been playing around lately with my sensor probes and see what temps I'm getting in my enclosure. I useto have it placed at the basking spot until one day my hand hit the light cage and I got burnt. So then I set a prob on the cage to find the cage temp was reaching 45+. But my basking would be 35. I left the probe on the cage and let the thermostat cut out until it dropped to 35. But then my reading on the basking which is close to the cage was only reaching 28-30 which isn't high enough. I hope you can seethe dilemma I'm having and maybe give me a better idea on where the probe should be. If it is in the basking spot how can I be certain my snakes aren't going to burn themselves on the cages?
