How is your setup? You should have a thermometer on the warm and cool side about 1" from the floor level. What types of thermometers are you using? If it is stick on ones, those are usually inaccurate and don't read the temperature correctly. The floor level is what you want to know how warm the temperature is. 110 degrees is way to hot for a snake. I use a 100W bulb and a human heat pad on my current rubbermaid tub and the temps seem to stay around 86-88 while at times they could hit 90, but I cool it before they hit over 88. If you need something to manage your temperature, you could get a thermostat that will manage the temperature for you. Sometimes you have to play around with different W bulbs to get the temperature right. A heat panel or thermostat would save you a lot of trouble.
