I lived in IL and be does get hotter than 95°f but not for months at a time. Think this through. That's like saying that since it gets 110°f in Colombia I should provide that as a constant option for my boa. When I bumped it to 93°f she avoided it for three weeks except for the first twenty minutes after feeding.

i under stand what your saying and if he was avoiding it i would lower it but he uses it constantly. he can choose his own temps in hes enclosure bt he seeks out the 105 spot so i dont see any problem.

Im not trying to pass this off as how you should care for your corn im just stating how i care for mine.
