    What are your cool side temperatures? There should be another hide there, and it should be 77-79 degrees.

    Other than that, I'm make the day time temperatures more 86-89 and the 'basking spot' 90 to 93 degrees, no higher.

    Bump the humidity to a constant 55-60% or so. This would be easier to do in a tub or actual snake enclosure as opposed to a screen top, which is not a suitable enclosure for a BP.
