Not to put words in his mouth, but FR would probably say to give them a wide range of temps and let them choose, which I agree with. Here in MI we don't have much of a problem. We have temps in the 40's in Oct, but I can see that in the Southern states you might have a hard time finding a place that will cool off. I would think if it got in the 40's or 50's at night, you could find a way to cool them at least at night, and let them be at 70 in the day. Could you have a snake room where you can leave the window open, or a garage, or porch, or something. Another alternative would be to not cool them and hope they keep feeding.
