I don't know about temps but that female is a beast. She is only 8ft?

well when i baught her i was told she was 25-30lbs and when i receaved her i weighed her in at 37lbs, i was also told that she was 8ft long, i havent gotten her out yet besides i was cleanning the cage there because she left me a present. but she could very well be 9-10ft not sure havent really stretched her out and so far she's quite docile
Thanks

Man thats a beauty. I always read a nice area of 90f. With a backround temp of 80. But i have heard some go into detail and up to like 95 but thats a little high alteast for me i prefer to keep it around 90f. For a prego, and not pregnant i keep mine at around 85-88 hot spot.

Yea im with you their you got a BEAST of a snake for what she was originally said to be. Im guessing 9.5ft. Keep us updated and more pics would be great!
