I have had my corn snake for 3 and a half years and a big rat snake for a few months now and never used UV lighting, just a thermostatically controlled heat bulb.
i always was told by others and on the internet sites,care sheets and book etc that they don't need ultravoilet light like most lizards and tortoises do.
i read a book today and it said that corn snakes and rat snakes need full spectrum lighting. its funny how one book author can condradict another lol

They dont need any UV at all, i wouldnt worry about it. IF one contradicts a lot, then it stands to reason that the 1 is most likely to be wrong.

As far as I know, corns don't need lighting. The people on here who have it, have it for aesthetic reasons.

:D

btw, your sig has a random URL to my bannermaker.....is that intentional?
