Thanks for the reply, my whole point of my question was, I keep reading about how reptiles in general need a certain amount of heat to be able to digest food. Also if not digested the food will rot in their system. So I was just asking if anyone knew the approximate temp at ambient temps without a heat source is a safe level to keep snakes with them still feeding?

I'm not advocating keeping snakes without a hot spot or anything like that.....I'm just curious if anyone knows like a cutoff temp level that snakes should not have food in their systems?

I could word it like this also, what's the safest temp you can keep snakes with food in them, without a hotspot?
