Re: New Member New Corn

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome ! Is it normal for a corn to spend all of it's time in the cool end hide ? The temps on that end are low to mid 70's at day and mid to high 60's at night. The warm end high 70's to mid 80's during the day and high 70's to low 80's at night. This is in a 20 long with a uth and blue heat bulb on a zoomed 500r reostat. I have a vivarium electronics ve-200 on the way. I like proportinal t-stats.

Might be abit late but I thought I'd throw my 2 cents in lol. I got my first ever snake (A Corn like yours) about 2-3 weeks ago and he spends most of his time in his hide under the cool side and only goes to the hot side by night when it's abit colder. I found this abit strange aswell but I soon realised that's just his preference and will go to the hot side when he wishes to.
