It's between the cold side and the middle, mostly because this seems to be Cassi's favourite location (when not hanging from ceiling).
Oh right i keep my moss hides on the warm side is this wrong then ? And my cold ends are just orchid bark but just slightley damp from the misting..  |

| No, not wrong; it's really a matter of your taste and your snake's preferences. I move mine depending on the season: during the hot summer, the hide is on the cool end; during the cold winter, it is on the warm end. So long as your snake is not burying him or herself under the substrate on the opposite end of the cage, your hide is probably fine where it is. |

As much as possible I let the snake chose, I make sure there is a good selection of hides at both both ends and middle so the snake does not have to chose between the security of a hide or thermoregulation. Cassi seems to like the middle to cold end when sleeping, so that's where I put the moisture box, but she still has caves at each end. Quite often she will just bury herself under all that moss. Finding her can take a while sometimes  |
