between NECESSARY and BENEFICIAL.
NECESSARY implies that UV is critical to the life of the snake. I've seen 20 year old captive snakes that have not been kept with UV lighting. If it was necessary then they obviously would not have lived 20 years.
Can it be BENEFICIAL? Maybe. But I haven't seen any proof.
Now back to the original question asked. Is it NECESSARY? Obviously not and that's the only question I addressed. Can it be BENEFICIAL? Maybe, but that is not what was asked.
Instead of asking people if they have ever seen wild boids or boids exposed to UV, why don't you explain to us the differences an expert like you have noticed. I'm clearly not an expert on the subject matter, but I can still say from my experience and other's that UV is not NECESSARY.
Now come clean. You're a sales rep for zoo-med right? lol.
