Re: Just bought Dumerils Boa
With a heat lamp the snake still gets belly heat as the lamp heats up the substrate as well as the air - if you want to use a lamp but not have light use Ceramic heat emitters - they stay on 24/7 and as long as thermostatted correctly then they are fine. We have them for all of our snakes and have no problem with heat or humidity (all in wooden vivs rather than glass aquariums).
