    BP heating?

    I am in the process of getting my first ball python. As I am preparing I keep running into the issue of what type of bulb I should buy. Ceramic heat emitters are an option because the bp will be in my bedroom and I'm worried I will have trouble sleeping with even a red or blue light. I also might like to buy a brighter light for heat as well as viewing purposes. What bulbs/ ceramic emitters are best for ball pythons? What lamps and bulbs do you use and what wattage?
    -Thank you
    ps. I will be using a medium zoomed uth as well.

    Wattage needed on either will depend on your rooms temperatures......
    Also before you purchase an UTH you need to also get a thermostat to regulate it.
