Just bought a digital theometer although it only has one probe! Its reading at 29.3C just wondering the best temp range for warm and cool?

She is in a faunarium just now with plastic feet preventing contact with the bottom, however i do have a thinish layer Of aspen.

Glad you said that as I thought my stat was going to break, it varies from 27-30 without being touched, the slightest turn of the dial and it changes a lot. Pleased that someone else has had to do a lot of messing to get good temps!
