Will,
You observations are an excellent testimony that even large constrictors can use a wider range of temps to acheive what they need.
I think a massive snake can heat up, then move to a cool area, and the snake's internal body temp will stay fairly warm for quite awhile. What would be interesting is to know what the internal body temp is when a big python is well away from the heat. After all, it is the IBT that the snake is ultimately trying to control. ----- Mark
