hahaha that took me an age to figure out what got blanked there hahahahaha



I still don't knooow

I have mine like 5mm thick or less on the heated side and like 1-2cm on the cool side. Not that it matters as the heated side soon becomes mostly bald apart from hills of aspen in places.

Agree with Rob, all mine have at least 2/3 inches all over. They love to burrow and soon find the heat. Overheating won't happen if your thermostat and probe are set correctly.

They say to leave it sp**** on the heat mat side but really they will burrow down to the heat once they are aware its there.

2 inches...any more and the heat will not get to the snake and possible overheat the base and cause trouble.
