Re: Reptile Tub for Blood Python?

Hello! B Aller and LadyWraith are right the light are not needed and will dry out the air. Plus to much light can stress them out. I found over the years they do just fine with what light shines in the cage. I use a plastic totes with little air holes drill in the sides for ventilation. For heat i use UTH pads. They work just fine with totes. The UTH pads are safer than using heat lamps with plastic totes. The key is to use a thermostat. Plus with using a UTH you can simply move the water bowl close to the hot side to bump up the humidity if needed.

As for size i use a heat mate that will cover 1/4 to 1/3 of the bottom of the cage.
This is the kind and site i get mine from. Ultratherm Undertank Heater (UTH)- 11"x23" - Reptile Basics Inc
