She sat under a light (95-100F) for several hours, then dropped away (low seventies) and then went back to the hot stuff. All of my snakes do the same thing. They need to spend moist of their life in cool and have the ability to select real hot for short intervals when they need it
yep! because hot temps alone will cause the bolus to decompose to quickly.The snakes re constantly regulating this.
they know what temps to choose for proper digestion. This goes from periods of hot, cold, warm etc. They are moving to digest the food at the right temps so not to regurge. ----- www.Bluerosy.com
These animals live in nature, without you. They know when to eat, when not to eat, how much to eat, etc. Why do you think they cannot do that in captivity? They do know, you are suppose to support what THEY DO, not hold back food because you keep them at temps they would not pick.
