I would think reptiles would do better in a warmer climate, not worse...

Considering that I take extreme measures to keep all my reptiles very warm, to avoid sickness and death, yeah.

The Ball Pythons require temps in the 90s and the Boas, high 80s.

Lower than that, they get sick with respiratory infections, cannot digest their food properly and are susceptible to skin issues.

Heat is good for herps.
