My 6'Gray is pretty lazy.He likes to lie around on top of his hide box,draped over his water bowl(warm end),up at the cool end(he is in one of those huge old long tanks they made years ago,75 gal or more)and he is just not restless(like a racer or coachwhip),but he does exercise.np

: greetings! 2 things: i just got my ratsnake Jeremy a new basking lamp, which he loves, but it gets pretty hot in the cage now. how warm is healthy for a ratsnake? also i was wondering whether a 5.0 UV light is needed, or would 2.0 be adequate? he seems sluggish lately, is not eating quite as well (but is very active, always looping and snaking around on his branches) and i'm worried that he's getting cold or something. i don't want him to go dormant because i don't know enough to make it safe for him.

: thanks,
