I agree that the heatpad/hidebox setup works very well, both for the snake and for the keeper in terms of cost and power usage.



My setup is an experiment in a different direction. One thing I have found out, the RHP is very very efficient as long as it is on a controller and not too far away from the target objects being warmed.



I have a milksnake in a setup like this too, except I use more PVC and newspaper (and the soil) for hides and just one crevice to see what the snake does with it. I'll post pics and progress. I'll be honest too. If this setup is for the birds, I'll freely admit it. Time will tell. And I'll give free helicopter rides.
