With burmese, the average maternal incubation temp for the vast majority of the 56 day incubation period is 92 F, with occasional fluctuations of a degree either side of this. I have rarely used artificial incubation with burmese eggs, but when I did, it was set at 91 F. However, you must make certain that your temp measurement device is of good quality and accurate. Also, most breeders incubate burmese at 90 without any problems, it just extends the natural incubation period a few days. I have also found that the average maternal incubation temp for Sri Lanka molurus is also higher than for most other python species at 91 F.

I haven't worked much with ball python eggs, but I wouldn't think 90.5 would be an issue, but I don't think I would go any higher than that with them.
