Snake heating issue...

[user 30368]

ok, first up. My ceramic heat globe seems to have died tonight after 3 months. Don't they last longer than that normally??

second, i now have 2 snakes and 1 heat lamp. I can get a new globe tomorrow after work so i need to know which snake needs the heat more in the mean time. I have a stimi who ate a mouse last tuesday and i have a swcp who is about to shed any second but has not eaten in almost 2 weeks (due to sloughing).

Who gets the heat tonight??

Either one should be fine without heat for a day.
Three months isn't very long. If you have the receipt take it back and they usually swap them because they have a warranty

Id heat the Stimi, the SWCP should be ok as it is a local species, but as Saximus said they will both be fine without heat for a day.
