Hi Aaron, Hmmmmmmm Don't drive yourself crazy. You seem to want to make cases for this and that. Northern limits, southern limits etc.

First, the tropics and that is where the most species come from can and does get cool to COLD. hahahahha at least for me. Once I was in the Kimberly in northwest Australia and it friggin froze. The next day I watched Kimberly rock monitors.

Jungles, rainforest etc all get into the low 60's at least the places I have been and that's pretty extensive.



Lets see, I have seen five species of python cross the road from the mid fifties, to low sixties. Guess they are not hibernating, many types of boas the same, in fact, cooler temps seems to be their liking. A rosie crawling at 45F, rubber boas, forget about it. Boa constrictors, 60's no problem, and both banana boas and tree boas in the sixties. These are active temps.



I think you use a decent temp range. It you give them the choices they need and how they need them, you and your snakes will be in great shape. pt1
