The deal with the temps makes perfect sense. I chose Arizona Mt kings as pets because that is not only a beautiful species, it's range is closest to mine temperature wise. I live in a small cabin in the Sierra Nevada foothills, heated with a wood stove in the winter. The snakes have big tubs in which they can rest at cool temps or heat up to digest their meals at higher temps over the UTH's. If your pyro could never get to lower than 72 degrees ever than maybe she died of heat stress complicated by being gravid.

I am truly sorry for the loss of your little female. I would be devastated to lose one of my girls.
