Red light at night...

[calmolly1]

I've read the other topics in here about lighting but I'm still confused. I bought a double light shade today and a red light for night viewing, which I didn't realize has heat too. It is better at heating than the CHE too. So is it ok to leave on all night as heat and night light? Or, do they need their 12 hours of dark instead? I can put a CHE in other socket and turn off red after we finish watching "snake TV", or is it not necessary?

Ball pythons are not able to see the red light all it is is heat to them. I have 3 ball pythons all have a red heat light for night time. As for the 12 hours of dark and light scheduale... I have done some research about this and some people say that they do not need a light scheduale but im not 100 percent sure. But yes you xan leave the red light on all night for extra heat
