if it has a place to go cooler fine ...96 heat pad? might not be 96 IN the cage or the actual floor temp



BUT...IF you have a choice....rather than fry the snake...cold is better than hot.....



....IF the whole cage is too hot....turn off heater....till you get new thermostat....don't feed while cold....



.......I have had my tapes set at 96....but the cage flor is actually alot cooler and all the cages are different...I run 4 tubs to a tape....and 4 tapes to a thermostat....
