Sorry, after I read your post again, just leave it exactly like it is at 94, but make sure to move the pad to the the very end so only a little bit of the tank end is over it at 94F so it can coil up and digest properly (either a bit closer or further from the max. temp.), then it can move away to the lower temps in the rest of the cage afterwards in the 70's. You don't need (or want) a large surface of the cage being 94 or more at all!, just a little bit. Like if your cage is 36", only maybe 10" or so has to be warm so the rest can stay cooler. Remember, they only need and use the heat for digestion. Otherwise snakes are hard-wired to conserve what they have in the cooler temps.


cheers, ~Doug
