If you have a larger heating pad you can use a part of it. As Mark mentioned in the other post, the enclosure should sit about 1/4 to a 1/3 over the heating pad (not more than a 1/3). One note on using plastic shoe box or tuberware enclosures, make sure the lid is secure! Sand boas, as with most other snakes, are excellent escape artists. Also, make sure you have small air holes (don't make them too large).
