    Re: T.s.parietalis temps

    Okay...so I'm confused...what kind of light did you have before and what kind of light do you have now? Because my UVB flourescent light is much brighter than my basking light. My snakes also dislike the bright light...but they dislike the UVB light and prefer the basking light...which is either a 40 or 60 watt light bulb in a dome light fixture. Glad to hear she was out and about all day btw...great news!! I just ordered a blue moonlight bulb for my albino...I'm wondering if maybe the red light he has now is too much light for him...albinos don't like much light at all.

    They also should never be exposed to UV .... a point to remember.

    my basking bulb was a uvb emitter as well, though in low levels. the care sheet suggested 8-10h of exposure/day, but i think that's too much in her case. i am now using a 60w che and have ordered a compact 5.0 reptisun.
