It's drawing closer to finally having a Ball Python. This will be my first reptile and some things are a little confusing to me. Let me start off by saying that I will be getting a starter kit:

I will also be getting another temp gauge, humidity gauge, heating pad and a bulb(s).

Can Anyone give me a better knowledge on the bulbs which ones are used for night and which ones for the day time.

I was looking at these at Petsmart also:

And should a heating pad be used 24hrs, only at day or only at night. This is my main concern is the heating and bulbs.
