Go unplug the mat. Your snake will be ok for one night.

I have been manually unplugging it today once it gets to 93ish, but yes tonight I plan on leaving it unplugged.

How thick is the bedding over the pad? You may need to reduce the amount of bedding over it of its 105 at the surface and only 88-90 on top.. I'm assuming it's a glass tank and not plastic so the glass would be as hot as the heat mat and not have to heat through plastic.

There is about a ten degree difference and right now I have about 1.5in of Aspen.

But I am thinking that I should cut that down once I get the controller? He doesn't burrow at all on either side now so I am worried it might be too cold once I down the temp at glass level. He may be motivated to burrow to get the heat then...but maybe not?
