Hey guys,
Still new to the forum and new to corn snakes in general. Would like any feedback (positive or negative) on my setup for my young snake. Don't hate me if I posted this in the wrong place =p.
So here is Norman's setup. Its a 10 gal for now screen top with 2 different heat sources. One heat pad placed on the bottom, and a overhead lamp.
Here is the cold side, pretty dull.
And here is the hot side, where most of my questions begin.
On the hot side the heating pad will keep the inside of hide right around 85F.
With the lamp on however it gets up to 99F (heating pad unplugged). Also keeping the humidity right around 40-60 % is a challenge. But I mist it once a day. So with all of that being said, am I on the right track?
Obviously upgrading to a bigger tank once he gets older. Or am I over thinking all of this and he is fine.. :headbang:
Thanks for any input,
Andrew
