    Re: Roaming a lot, not eating much, light scales down spine?

    Thanks! I'll probably purchase it in the morning since it's getting late. His UTH isn't usually on since my outlet is filled with other things like his heat lamp and light, should I get an extension cord and have the UTH on as well? The temp on the hot side (according to the thermometers I have now) is pretty much perfect with only the heat lamp. Does he still need the UTH? Also do you think the light scales are there because he's going to shed soon?

    Yeah I'd def keep UTH going constantly. They need the belly heat. Make sure to hook it up to a thermostat and keep it at 90 degrees. As far as the scales, there are others here with more experience that would be better able to answer that.

    http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...With-Pictures! That's a pretty good guide for setting up your tank. Good luck!!
