Really warm ball python at PetSmart??

The tanks they have at Petsmart are very small (most are between 2 and 5 gallons) so one can imagine it is hard to get a good temp gradient in them. I used to work there.

However, I can say that while they were on the warm side, we never had many issues with the baby BPs. Always shed good, always ate good, etc.
