I use belly heat. Belly heat helps Ball Pythons digest their food.

Re: belly heat vs back heat
I'm using both and both seem to work fine for me.
I'm not afraid of snakes, because I got Balls!

Back heat for the hatchlings. Belly heat for all others.

Re: belly heat vs back heat
I use back heat for all my females specifically. I do have a belly heat rack that I use to put any large BPs that show a preference for stretching out.
My rationalization is:
I put the males and females with each other interchangably, hence my racks all of them except for one..have back heat. The reason for this is, I would not want to miss a laying and have the eggs fried because it got too hot.
The animals do not show any problems digesting with only back heat provided (sheesh..I gotta go clean out some more tubs tonight!)

Dual side radiant heat.
Warms the bottom and sides of the back part of the tubs.

Re: belly heat vs back heat
I use both and they seem to make no difference. Most of my racks are belly heat which is what most use for BP's.
