That bottle idea is amazing. Just thrown one in the freezer. I checked earlier and it was 35*C in the hot end (Without anything being on) !!
I take it the 'cool' end is about the same? You definitely need to start an intervention program... She'll also be grumpy at those temps which will only make the taming harder.
You should try to get the cool side down to 25*c ish.. |

| Keeping at that temp is mega dangerous, and life threatening for the snake. You need to get the temps down ASAP. Move th viv to a cool room. Don't put ice blocks directly in the viv, I put mie on top if needed with a fan on. She will be ea grumpy in that heat, I wouldn't feed until temps are normal. X |

@ Thorne and Georgina
I froze a bottle of water and then wrapped a thin towel around it and put it right next to the viv against the glass.
Snakey has curled up right next to it. I think she's looooving the cold!
Thanks xx |

| Yup 27 - 29 is ideal, mine are at 28.5. Anything over 30 can cause brain damage and in some cases death. You cannot really do anything about the cool end. Except cool the air tem with ice block, shade, I have deep water bowls as mine are over 2,5ft and I'm happy they can get out, which brings the temps down. Mine havnt gone above 28.5 yet :) |

Yaay! 
The cool end temp is less important so long as it's lower then the hot side.
I have my hot side at 28c. |
