A regular light bulb can work for a primary source of heat if you own a small boa (juvi) but for a good sized boa (an adult) you will need a different source like heat tape or meat mat because it can take a very long time to heat a very thick snake. I use both and it seems the boas prefer to lay on the heat mat
