lol. yeh i think your all set. Would only move the viv if there's a draft by the window. Now you just need to leave snakey alone for a few days and try a feed. I would go with whatever he was eating at the pet shop to start with. What temps the room? there's no way the bulb should be running constant as the viv will hold the heat for a while.

Not really sure what temp the room is, but it isn't particularly warm. There's no draft by the window as such, but it isn't especially warm. I didn't get around to moving the viv last night, however as best I can tell the stat hasn't actually been pulsing in a while. I've measured the substrate hotspot several times and it's matched the setting on the stat, and the ambient has been 80 low down, 84 higher up. Digitherms arrived today, so I can stop messing about with the strip. she was insistant on coming out to play last night, twice in fact, however she's going to get fed tomorrow as that's when she was next due at the shop, so the seller said. Have a couple of medium rats as that's the size they were feeding her. Not really looking forward to that, feel guilty enough with large mice.... lol

Well, according to the digitherms, substrate level at the hotspot is 88-89, ambient substrate is 78, near the top is 85. Rat is in the fridge for tomorrow. That could be interesting! :-)
