Question Warm hide

Well now that my snake is getting the proper nutrition he needs (was underfed before in my care), he's starting to settle down a bit (cruising less).

My concern though, is he's now spending ALL his time in the warm hide, which varies from 90 - 95 degrees. I do see him occasionally half out of the hide (to cool down, I assume), but is it not bad that he's staying in the hottest spot in the viv ALL the time? He does have other hides (which I've seen him use), and the ambient temps (cool side) are roughly at 82 degrees, so I know the cool side isn't too low.

I know they need a hot spot, BUT... Is that normal for them to always be on the hot spot?

Thanks in advance.
