Was just wondering if it is essential to have a red heat bulb or a standard heat bulb. Im not really sure of the difference? |

That's what I was told too stotty01 and apparently it's the same with the green, yellow and blue bulbs.
I think they look quite effective and if they don't hurt the snakes eyes that's even better!  |

I use red or grren bulbs because I was told that an ordinary one could upset their eyes. Have no idea if this theory is correct but I prefer the red or green anyway!  |

the other options you have is either ceramic or infra red lighting, but depends on what you want a heat/light source or purely as a heating source |

wouldnt use a white bulb myself, i couldnt put up with the light on all the time while red isnt just as bright. |

other than the colour it will give off there is no difference to what heat bulb you use. |
