    Infared heat light

    I’ve seen some people on Facebook saying that the Infared heat lights are terrible. Just wanted everyone’s opinion. I have a 3 year old Darwin Carpet who seems fine with it. I’ve also had a beardie for about 11 years and he’s been fine with it his whole life. So basically what I’m asking is if...

    Weird question: do snakes need their body temp to be at the temp of their basking spot?

    Only noticed tonight that my snakes heat lamp had blown, I have no idea how long he has been in the cold for. He’s fine thankfully, and I replaced the bulb immediately and he is currently basking. Much more active and moving around. But this bulb I’m pretty certain is a lower wattage than his...

    Glowing heat lamp?

    I have an exoterra 150W heat lamp. It’s a black one that emits no light. It’s perfect for my snakes temp as he sits at 30-33 degrees under it. But I noticed tonight that it glows red when heated up. I don’t know what to do about this? Should I be worried? It makes me concerned. I will attach a...

    Heat lamp help

    Hey all, long time since I’ve posted. Got my boy (originally thought he was a girl until he shed sperm plugs lol) into his new enclosure! First time using heat lamps instead of heat mats. His branch was sitting at 23°, obviously too cool, so we’ve moved the branch closer to the enclosure and...

    Heat sources

    I’m looking at getting a snake, potentially a woma python currently. After doing some research I’ve found articles recommending lamps from above but noticed in the Facebook groups heat mats are more so recommended. Can you please tell me what the contributing factors are when choosing a heat...
