If you have the heatmat in the viv I would put some vinyl/lino over the top of it.

Hiya guys,
Say if I get a wooden vivarium would I place the substrate just over the heat mat inside the viv say if the substrate was paper towels or would it set the paper towels on fire or burn the snake lying on the paper towels thanks alot,
Luke.
Lukee Posted - 23/12/2009 : 23:16:14
Also does it matter that my cooler side is 65-70 degress or will my snake suit itself to what temprature it feels most comftable?
Thanks Luke.

Went to the shop to buy my baby ball python and hes really nice, although they said he hasnt been eating well so I made a deposit and reserved that one however they said they would all me when they had given it two successful feeds, do you suspect they will keep trying every day to feed him until he feeeds or try every 7-10 days to see if he eats?
Thanks Luke.
Blackecho Posted - 23/12/2009 : 21:44:56
No, it'll be fine.
Lukee Posted - 23/12/2009 : 21:03:16
Will it really ennoy the snake having the temprature change all the time like this or should it be fine?
Thanks Luke.

A Pulse Proportional, though they're a little more expensive.
Lukee Posted - 19/12/2009 : 09:57:29
Is there another heat mat stat which keeps the temps the same?
Blackecho Posted - 18/12/2009 : 21:35:11
Having your probe with the thermometer will work too.

The up and down temperature is to be expected with an on/off stat.
Lukee Posted - 18/12/2009 : 16:45:03
Can I put the probe in with my temprature probe under the warm hide seems to be working?,a lthought also due to my thermostat it keeps going on and off so it srepeatedly goes from 80-90 then back down to 80 then up to 90 constantly will this p*** off the snake continuosly changing all the time?
Thanks,
Luke.
Danny Action1 Posted - 18/12/2009 : 15:41:00
I would tape the probe to the mat and the just sit the Rub on the mat thats what i do
Lukee Posted - 18/12/2009 : 12:46:57
ok where should I put the matstat prob I didnt quite understand you, directly on the heatmat underneath, on the substrate in the warm end under the substrate where exactly,
Thanks Luke.
Blackecho Posted - 18/12/2009 : 12:23:39
Cramped = good.
Lukee Posted - 18/12/2009 : 09:10:27
Ok will it be ok tooo have that same mediam hide in the cold end exactly the same place or willl it be too cramped. Also I dont quite get what you mean in the rub under the substrate on the heat mat or does that mean directly on the heat mat.
Thanks Luke.
Blackecho Posted - 18/12/2009 : 08:17:23
You need a hide at both ends and I would have the probe on the floor above the heatmat, then just adjust the thermostat up or down until you get the right temperatures.
Lukee Posted - 17/12/2009 : 22:41:58
Also can you tell me where I should put my stat prob because its not going on and off at the right temprature, e.g at 95 degrees it still keeps the light on, ive got it just in the tank shall I put it on the heat mat directly?
Thanks, Luke.
Lukee Posted - 17/12/2009 : 21:26:04
