Ball Python heating requirements?
I have never owned a snake before, and I am going to get a ball python tomorrow. I am making its cage myself. The bottom of the cage is 1/2 in thick plywood sealed with a coat of rubber sealant. I bought a 24 watt Under Tank heating pad, but I am concerned that it might not get enough heat into the terrarium if placed underneath. should I also buy heat lamps, or perhaps modify the tank somehow to let the heat in? any suggestions are very appreciated.
The heat pad should heat though fine. You may require an additional heat source as a lamp so I would buy one to at least have on hand. Before you put your snake in the cage, you need to let the cage set with the heat on until there are no more fumes(this could be weeks). The fumes are toxic. This applies to all sealers, paints, and adhesives used for building the cage. Because of this you will need a temporary housing, plastic storage containers work well.
