Bear in mind if you do use it that regular glass blocks a good bit of IR radiation, but plexiglass and acrylics transmit it.

How about thru the screen (welded wire) top? Any problem with that?
Re: Brooks Kingsnake strange digestion and behavior? (diarrhea and biting himself)
This is an update if anyone is interested:
He's been doing well, no biting or getting hungry too quick. I fed him 2 days ago, and he hasn't passed stool yet. He is not a fan of the oral antibiotics, but we're getting there. It is his 3rd day today. It does tend to irritate his gums because he is very adamant about keeping his jaw shut. I've tried a thin handle of a paintbrush and a bent bobby pin instead of the little syringe, but it is more of a hassle to go from one to the other. He did get a little bit on his mouth and when I put him back into his tank today, he started rubbing his head everywhere. I hope it doesn't irritate his skin, but he seems better now. He usually doesn't get much out of his mouth. :)
