Re: Dehydrated hognose. Please don't flame.

There is nothing wrong with using a heat lamp. Without knowing the size of you enclosure I'm going to assume that you have 10 gallon tank. 100 watt bulb is definitely too high.
But there are precautions that need to be taken to reduce the risk of desiccation such as very regular water changes, slightly larger water bowls and humid hides.
