Help with WC black racer temps!

cito Oct 16, 2003 08:19 PM

What i have been doing for my 4.5 foot wild black racer is i had a 100 watt heat lamp on his 20 gallon cage for about 4-5 hours a day, turning it off whenever i felt was a good time. And at night i have nothing on. I was just wondering on some specifics what i should do during the day and night. What watt bulb? How long to have it on? What about night time, same thing?

You caught him locally, right? Just try to simulate the weather conditions where you caught him.

I'm gonna have to disagree with you on this one. If that were true I'd have my eastern milks in the freezer next month.
