Re: my two snakes

Unless they can actually come in direct contact with the light, I really doubt they have burns on them....unless the light is blazing hot! I'd think it might actually be some sort of scale damage from another source, like being too dry, too wet, mites or something else.

Re: my two snakes

If they were burned by the light there should have damaged areas, not only little spots.

Re: my two snakes

I would also think if they were burned they be developing blisters........or atleast some sort of mass damage in an area.....
