Hey everyone,

I got a new hatchling B-P 2 weeks ago. Living in VT its been pretty tough keeping his home up to temp without having to blast the heat in my apartment everyday. I went and bought a second heating pad today for his terrarium. Got a small Zoo Med one. His cage is about 80 degrees throughout. To warm it up/create a better heat gradient I want to put the new one on the back left of the tank. There is already a medium sized one on the bottom on the side of his hidey thing. Also, I bought a terrarium liner similar to this one: http://www.petco.com/product/110024/...ackground.aspx that has a tropical background and I taped that to the inside of the tank. It isn't an adhesive or paper, it's like a plastic-y photo paper. I'm almost positive I should remove it if I'm adding the new heatsource but just wanted to check to see what you guys thought. Do you think the small heat pad will get so hot it will cause the liner to bubble/melt? There's nothing for the snake to climb on on that side except the thermometer but he usually doesn't.

Thanks for your thoughts!
