Yeah, I know, I'm thinkin' way ahead here.

I am just now getting back into snakes after about 15 years without. I'm having 4 snakes shipped to me for arrival on Tuesday, in fact. One is a Peruvian rainbow from one of this forum's good friends and frequent posters.

I have read here and elsewhere about keeping temps for rainbows in the high 70s-low 80s. For the winter, that's all fine and dandy. BUT -- in the summer, I rarely run the central air. I'm just odd that way. It is very likely that the indoor temps could be in the mid-80s fairly frequently.

Will this stress my rainbow? Or will she adapt as long as she has plenty of water? I'm not worried about the other snakes, which will be Hondurans and in the future possibly corns as well. But I want to keep my rainbow and any future rainbows happy.

Thanks for any input!
