AP Cage Question

rottenweiler9 Feb 04, 2007 07:16 AM

I have a 6ft AP cage. What is the highest Watt Bulb I can use in there for my snakes without buring their skin? I was told to only use a 50 watt in the vision cages because how close the light was to the ground.

Thank you

Jeff

When I used my 6' AP enclosure I usually put a 60 watt, and occasionally (when it was the winter months) I would put a 75 watt bulb in it.
