    Yes, that can burn your snake, and you most defiantly need a thermostat!

    You really do need a thermostat or at least a dimmer switch to control that UTH. Your body temperature is not a reliable way to tell if that UTH is too hot.

    Your body temperature is not the same as your skin temperature, which is why you don't burn your snakes by touching them.
