I was looking at the care sheet and noticed it said "The ideal temperature for you snake's vivarium is a temperature gradient of 27-33°C (77-85°F)"
these are two differant gradents,27c = 80.6f and 33c = 91.40f,which one is it,what do you all run yours at?

It means that the cool side should be around 27 and the hot side should be around 33. A few degrees doesn't really make much difference though.

somebody's obviously got their conversions wrong somewhere............
i'd go for the *C but 33*C sounds a bit high (but only by a degree or two)
