custom snake cages
Soon to be snake setup.?
So I came up with this huge idea to build a custom cage. It should meet my needs. as to how I'd like it to look and the needs of the snake of course. But there's one thing that I still haven't come to a solid decision on. Being that a snake needs heat at all times, but also needs the light off at night time....would it be possible to have a red bulb heat emitter on all day? I think it makes sense and it should be fine, but I haven't seen anybody do this, so it is questionable.
You can provide a nighttime bulb(red and blue) or ceramic heater to maintain the temperature at night without the bright light which would disturb the snake at night, but you can leave these on during the day as well. When using light bulbs for heat, be sure that they are placed in such a way that the snake cannot contact any hot surfaces. You can also provide heat through under tank heaters and specialty reptile heating platforms. Be sure to use a thermoregulator to allow for better control over the temperature.
Here are some links for building cages, it may give you some help on the design.
