Hi, you posted a question in one of my pics about a pueblan milk snake in April. "Nice setup... I am plannin' on getting a pueblan soon, but can i ask what do you do as far as heat... I've read heat lamps are useless cuz they are nocturnal do you just use a UTH?" Sorry it took so long to reply to your question, I've been a way for a while with no internet access. Finally back. Now if you still need an answer to your question, I use an infrared heat lamp. Gives him the overhead heating without the irritating brightness of a day bulb. Hope this helps, assuming you are still searching for an answer. Again, sorry about the late response.
