I have a custom cage that we put the UTH inside the cage. its under that indoor/outdoor carpet and its been there for quite a while and we've not had any problems. its not melting the carpet and it doesnt get too hot for the snakes. I was just wondering if anyone else does this. the cage that i put the UTH inside isnt an aquarium so i cant really stick it under the cage b/c the it wouldnt work very well.

also, i have a RTB in a 120 gal tank. he is always laying over the heat pad. it is plugged in and working, when i touch the glass in the tank, it doesnt feel very warm. should i put it inside the cage and see if he moves around more? it just seems odd that hes the only snake i have that is always on the heater, all the others are in different places... is he just happier on the heater?
