Well, from what I know of lab trials with lizards in a tank where a thermal gradient is maintained, they tend to hang out in one specific spot that represents their thermal optimum (this is basically how their optimum is determined experimentally). So if there's one spot he spends most of his time in that's probably the perfect temperature spot. What sort of snake is he, btw? 🙂

ah, well that does make sense, logically lol! He is a standard north american corn snake - he's 18 years old and is currently about 6' long (give or take). I bought him when he was only about 6 inches long :3 And his favourite place to hang out is in his peet moss filled tupperware. I suppose he likes the humidity in there, which is not really what I expected based on my previous experience with california native snakes, but he seems to be one pretty happy creature so I'm not going to argue with him. :P
It sounds like he's pretty damn happy, yeah, if he's already on his 18th year :) it's a great feeling to rear some creature from little and watch it thrive :)
