Re: Advice for Day and Night Bulbs

Uv bulbs aren't gnarly! And trust me-what a reptile bulb can put out is a fraction of what they'd be exposed to in the wild. The chances of overdoing it are slim in less you went mad with multiple bulbs etc.

Use a quality brand like Zoo-Med though. Don't use Repti-Glo - not nearly as good and don't last as long. Spectral output is more questionable too.

Just make sure there's plenty of shade and hidey places as well as a basking spot and the snake will be fine. I generally put the uv where the heat is also so it basks in the uv and heat together.
