    Actually, an UTH is not necessary. At least from what I've heard and known. Is it BETTER than heat from a lamp/CHE? That's up for debate. But a BP can definitely be kept on overhead heating their whole lives as long as the humidity and temperature meet the requirements.


    But either way, make sure whatever you're using is regulated by a thermostat or at the very least a dimmer/rheostat.
