I will keep that in mind. I will also research cohabbing snakes i just thought that when i got them they were with a whole bunch of them so i figured it would be okay. I do have one of those stick on things that determine the temp but i also want to get something else that helps with temp the heating lamp has put out a lot of heat so i have to check it on a regular basis. Lately i havent handled them all that much cause i do have a 3 1/2 year old and i know she scares them so i leave them in their cage so they are not so stressed

i will definately keep that in mind and research it i just figured that since they have been in cages with others before that it would be okay. Lately i havent messed with them all that often cause i have a 3 1/2 year old and her being all hyped up about having snakes for a first time and i know it scares them and stresses them out so i leave them in their cage so they are not all that stressed. The heating lamp does put out a lot of heat so i check it regularly to make sure its not too hot for them. I do need to get more thermostates to monitor the heat source and keep it under control.

get a thermometer with a probe you can put under the substrate($11.00 at walmart in SA). that is the best place to check the temp, right on top of the heating pad. I had to build a rheostat to use with mine to get the temp down to 85. I also use a heat lamp but it has a dimmer and is barely on, just because our living room tends to be dark.
