Probe for the stat is under a hide in a bin on 4" tape, where the temp stays at 88. When i pit a digital thermo or my temp gun on the hot side of any of those bins with 4" they are at 88.
In the bins with 1 foot strips of 11" tape, the temp reads 81/82 with the temp gun or a digital temp guage. That rack is on the same thermostat.
Both racks are built the same and use 39qt rubbermaids, just with diff size heat sources.

Thats your problem,you have 2 different watt heat tapes. The 11" is not getting heat applied long enough to bring up temps. You'll have to use another t-stat or make a compromise between the 2 temps. Maybe try setting the probe under the 11" tape and setting temps to 86 and see where the temp is on the smaller tape.
I personally would just get another t-stat.

lol yeah i was just letting the OP know what the approx temp diff is between the two sizes... it works for me right now perfect, as the bigger breeders are on the 11" tape and the smaller females and juvis are on the 4. A month from now ill need the 11" on another thermo... which im still willing to trade for ;-) hahah
