Ball python heating help

[dakski]

I think I’ll try two thing. One add a led light that’s adjustable in brightness so it’s no so bright but still has some day/ night cycle light.

second I’ll turn off the uvb( I thought uvb was good for them ? Is this wrong in thinking ?)

I’ll keep hearing the same for now.

last thing should I expect him to be active or out during the day ? I don’t think I have ever seen him active during the day.

Ball Pythons are a ground/borrowing species and are nocturnal (active at night).

So a) UVB does not benefit them and b) you should not expect him to be active during the day.

UVB does benefit basking creatures, such as many lizards. So, not wrong in your thinking, just not applicable to BP's and many snakes.
