question

Hey all I was just wondering if a Jungle python and a olive needs the UV fluroresent globe in their enclousure, as my room gets limited sunlight cause of a garage, and taking the animals outside are as yet not possible as I'm not yet comfortable about handling snakes.


Cheers Daniel

RE: question

Most people will tell you that you don't. It is said that only diamond pythons need regular UV light.

While it may not be NECESSARY in my humble opinion only it is BENEFICIAL.

They don't need it, but can't harm them.
