"Versa tops" are dual glass folding panes that come with a plastic attachment that slides onto the glass edge and covers the enclosure. You can put holes in the plastic to facilitate air flow. I think you just need to tweak the husbandry and you should be good.  |
I have some logs that run across the tank, the snake has never been on them, at least that I've ever seen. I know they are a bit nocturnal, so for all I know he's all over the place at night. I'll look into the versa top for my next enclosure. I figure he'll outgrown this one in a couple more months so I'm trying to not put any more money into it.

OK, this is exactly what happened. He stayed in his hide on the warm side after eating for about a day, then hid in the cold part for about 2 days after.
