Is ambient temperature alright?

What addiction?!
Ok heres the deal. I have a ton of corns as most of you know. But I am wondering this, can corns do well with ambient temps? I have glass tanks with heat pads, racks and a pantry that has been converted to a sanke room. The pantry has all snakes in sterilite tubs: babies in 6qts, bigger in 15 qts and the really big 'uns in 32 qt tubs. They have bedding, water and hides. All tubs are on shelves more than 2 feet off the floor. There are 3 different thermostats/hygrometers in different areas and tubs. The highest the temp gets is 85f and the lowest is 74f. All of the gauges read the same. I have the light on 12 hrs a day to simulate day time and off 12 for night. Now with that being said- the snakes in the pantry seem to being just as well as the ones in the racks and tanks. They digest well, most lumps are gone with in 24 hrs of feeding, shed nice, full sheds, and are active. So will this set up work or should I try to do more racks? Will my adults breed alright being kept this way? Thanks for your input in advance. :)
 
If your ambient temps are around 75-80, they will do just fine. You probably don't need to supplement with more heat at those temps. Your adults should breed as long as your light cycle isn't too short. I don't know much about breeding snakes but a 12/12 cycle should work.
