Room is 70*F (snake room is 78*F) and because the enclosures are 24" high the RHP doesn't do much to create a basking spot on the floor. The inside of the enclosure runs 75-76*F on the cool side.

The juvie retics do like to perch halfway between the RHP and the floor, directly under the RHP, most of the time. I think they like to watch what's going on in the room. I've temped them directly with a heat gun and they're 84-85*F. They use the hide on the belly heat for a few days after eating.
