See if you can get the 83 degrees up to 90 or so. Also, either mist the snake several times a day or give him a nice warm soak for about 30 minutes. I prefer the misting but sometimes a soak is necessary. By warm water, I mean where it feels just a little bit warm to your hand. You don’t want it to be too hot. Good luck and keep us posted.

Like SCSnakeman said, get those temps. up too. You should have the warm side temps at 90- 94f. Good luck.
