I am soon to be getting my first snake (a childrens python), and we recently got a wooden vivarium from our local reptile supplies store. Since we were to be using a heat mat as the ideal heat source in this enclosure, the owner recommended that we place a tile at the bottom of the enclosure (so that it doesn’t burn the wood) then place the heat mat on top of that with a tile on top (so it isn’t in direct contact with the snake or substrate), I am a little sceptical of this strategy and I was wondering if anyone else had used it before, if they think it would work, or if they have a better idea?
