A thing I did to provide a hot spot in this screen cage for my bulls is I attached a Zoomed UTH to a square of plastic from a cut out tub lid and put it in the cage with a hide over it, and ran this with a thermostat and monitored with a thermometer probe. It never got too hot to ignite the aspen bedding. I checked every day! The snakes could lay on this and be nice and warm even when the ambient temperature in the room, hence the cage, would drop into the mid 50's at night. I have since scored a bunch of great large glass cages, but would utilize the screen cages again if needed. The screen cages were all I had for a few years. ----- Bob
