Garter snakes don't need a bulb at night... I keep about 70 in my house, and have worked with hundreds of babies, never once did I heat the cages at night.

They are North American colubrids, they spend very chilly evenings outside in nature, have been forever.

Unless you allow your house to fall below freezing inside at night, it is completely unnecessary to run a heat lamp at night.

Please don't confuse garters with tropical snakes or boids.

$7 at wal mart...
