If you're sticking with the heat lamp (no probs there) then you'll probably want a dimming thermostat which you can pick up on ebay or second hand in classifieds for about £30.

If you can't get one straight away it might be worth trying to find a lower wattage bulb.

I think you'll find it will. You had basically given him 2 options, go to the hot end and cook or stay at the cool end and not be able to digest his food.
