If you're not going to use a heatmat or ceramic heat emitter i would recommend you use a purple night light( you may need 2) for your heat source then you need to provide the snake with light such as a flouro only to indicate the day cycle. This will need to be on a timer say on at 7am and of at 7 pm for example. |
