    I believe they can see the red light but it does not seem to bother them.

    So red light is bad for all the time heat? How about blue or black?

    I heard Red lights are fine for them becuase their eyes don't see the same spectrum of light as we do.

    I don't know whether or not they can see red light or not, but they will still do their nocturnal duties. You could always go with a Ceramic Heat Emitter, same heat, no light...

    Re: Can snakes sleep with red light?

    I have tried red light with some other of my nocturnal animals (gecko's), and they were very disturbed by this. They did'nt come out at night at all.

    So now I use those blue night bulbs with my gecko's and my bp's, and they don't seem to bother at all.
