hi. the warm side of my viv stays around 29 exactly but shayde (my corn) is mainly sitting on the cold side. has been for over a day now. well i don't know about at night. but whenever i look in hes mainly over there in his cocnut hide. i have a cave hide on the warm side also. i measured the temps on the cool side and it was about 26.. is there any way i can lower this without lowering the warm side? and should i be worried or will he go to the warm side if he needs it?

i am using a heat mat underneath the warm side of the faun and its covering about 1/3 of the faun although because its quite big there is alot of overhang on the mat but the overhang is away from the cool side.

my little faun is on the heat mat with an overhang, but i have a plant in which little crystal tends to hang out on up top to thermoregulate, sometimes i catch her in her hide, depends what she feels like

thanks :) weight lifted off my mind ahah. first time keeper so i dont want anything to go wrong :)
