That's exactly what I was thinking when I set up Cecil's tank. All I had read on other boards beside Kingsnake was that UTH was the only way to go for a healthy snake. Problem was, I had lots of spare lamps, no UTH, and no money to buy one (they're uber-expensive locally). I started with a red bulb for a few weeks, then switched to a standard basking bulb. He didn't come out at all with that in the lamp. Bright light seems to be less preferable than a red bulb, so I switched him back. Middle of the day and middle of the night, the "sand" boa drapes himself on a small terrarium log on his aspen and basks for hours. I was expecting a very secretive critter when I got him, and ended up getting one of my most active snakes ever, lol. -Jacob
