Temp for desert king?
I just got a young desert king snake and keep the temperature between 74-76 under the hide on the cool side and 84-87 on the hot side. Being my first snake I have ever owned I am still constantly searching for more information. Just now I visited a sight and it suggested 80f on the cool side and 85-90 on the hot side for a desert king, have I had my temperatures to cold? Also I noticed my snakes eyes have turned a light foggy blue color so I am expecting it to shed, I will be bumping up the humidity to around 60% once I am sure but should the temperature change wile its in shed as well. And lastly is it good to let the temperature drop 5 degrees on each side at night.
