Just curious...
How many of you have different day time temps as apposed to night time temps? Do you guys shut any bulbs off at night.. have night bulbs at night.. if so how do you guys go about it.. and what is your temp in the day as apposed to night?

Alot of people here dont use bulbs
Personally;
I use a sun glo during the day and a Ceramic heat emitter on 24/7
Depending on the seasons and outside temps kind of tweeks my inside temps
so Night i try not to let it fall below 26 in the day it sits around 30
Summertime sometimes i dont have any bulbs on as temps in the house start hitting 38-40 during the day

I dont use bulbs, I use radiant heat panels and flexwatt..... but I do have a BCC and amarali) ... I use Helix thermostats and run dayttime temps for REGULAR POPULATION 89 and nighttime temp 78..... that is hot side of the cage temps..... the cool side stays about 12-15 degrees lower ... BCC like cooler temps than bci though

I vary temps for breeders..... I cycle down preseason .. and bring my females up when they ovulate.... to 93 hot side daytime and 79 hot side night time

I used to work with pythons in the past and I kept them about the same as my gravid female boas......
