  1. 55 to 65 F
  2. 90 to 100 F
  3. 75 to 85 F ✔

Why: BGSU lists 75 to 85 F for corn snakes. Arrange heat across one end so the snake can choose warmer or cooler areas.

Huh, didn't know that: A temperature range is useful because reptiles regulate body heat by moving.

Why did the snake check both ends? It liked to stay current on temperatures.
