stupid question maybe, do you give them less UV light?
i had an albino rat and he didn't like the too much light because it burnt him

|  | Ordo Atra Serpentis Subscriber | Join Date: Apr-07 Location: Redfern Age/Gender: 23  | | | | thanks for taking the time to explain that to a total newbie!
i guess it is a bit of a petshop ploy. it does find it's way into a lot of documentation about keeping pythons unfortunately.
thanks again

|  | Subscriber | Join Date: Nov-06 Location: SE QLD Age: 22 | | | | Hey boa While I agree with your theory on them not "needing" uv, in Jungles in particular, I find it helps bring the yellow out a lot brighter. I have found this by testing it on two different jungles one with and one without and have found that the one under the uv has brighter yellow, whereas originally it was the same as the other, this is just my observation on the matter
