| I leave it on, snakes cannot really see red light, it just appears like dusk to them. |

I use a Micro climate B1 with magic eye.
The day time temp is at 30 degrees C and the night time temp is set at a difference of 6 Degrees C |

yep,if you have a normal light on 24/7 that would probably stress the snake,the infra red bulbs just look like bright red light to us but seem dim to a snake therefor not really noticable during the day to them and just seems like dusk during the night |
