Right now I have two burms, both babies that are in 30 gallon aquariums. They both have the exact same type of setup with hideplaces, substrate, heating etc. Both of my burms are acting retarded. On one end of the cage, i had a hide rock under a 75 watt heat lamp(92 degrees). On the other end, i had a hide rock with a heat pad under it. The burms never moved from under the hide rock over the heat pad. I picked them up and they were way too hot. I then realized that my temps were to high so i decided to remove the pad. And i heard that this should be perfect so the snakes could thermoregulate, going from the hot hide spot, to the cold one. So i left the heat pad off for one day, and the burms still didnt move! I picked them up from under their hide spots, and they were freezzzing. Why wouldnt they move to the other end of the cage with the heat lamp???? I dont know what else to do i have tried so much and have spent ver $50 just to get a variety of hide spots to see how they worked and they still didnt move. WHY? They eat 3-4 times a week and seem perfectly healthy. I just dont understand.
