I'm pretty new to Jungle Carpet and I got my first one a coule month ago. Right now I've got him with overhead lamp running about 11 hours a day on a timer. I've looking a the eventual cage I'll use for him a an adult and found that I want a cage that I can stack with my other cages. This leaves me with 2 options.

1. Install a fixture inside the cage with some protection to prevent him from burning himself.

2. Switch to UTH like my other snakes, but I though that since they're semi arboreal they prefer heat lamps. Also at this point would I want his hide on the cool or warm side?

Thanks for the help
