If you tell us about the setup and temps what your using to check the temps etc heat source, is it statted.

yup, you would need a digital thermometer if you are going by the dial on the stat then the temps probably not 30 is possible it may be higher, the dial on the stats not anywhere near accurate enough,

You cant rule out both. I would be tempted to turn the stat way down or even turn the mat off until your thermometers arrive, as long as the room is warm your snake will be fine and if he is always in the cold end it won't have any effect anyway. |
