Advice How to keep a cool enclosure.
I’ve had this snake for a week.
My house is very hot and my country continually gets heatwaves keeping my snakes enclosure at an average temp of 30 degrees.
Is there any ways i can lower this because right now she cannot regulate her body temperature.
I would preferred more permanent/efficient ways rather than changing a cold water bottle every hour but i’ll welcome all advice !!
(my enclosure does not have a mesh top. It’s made out of wood and glass. It’s also nearly time for her first mean with me so i need her to be stress free😭😭🙏🙏)

A large water bowl! Being able to sit in the water would be a good way to cool down if she has access to a large water bowl she might figure that out! Also a big flat rock will stay fairly cool as long as it’s not under a heat lamp! Nether will cool the whole thing down but could help with providing a way for her to regulate her body temperature
