Reptiles, being ectothermic or "cold-blooded," cannot generate their own body heat and rely on external sources like the Sun to maintain their bodily functions.
The Zoo Med Snake Strip U.T.H. (Under Tank Heater) replicates the natural warmth of sun-heated surfaces, providing essential heat for terrestrial snakes, especially those active during nighttime hours. It serves as either a primary or secondary heat source.
Size: 3.5" x 18"
Power: 10w
Usage Guidelines:
Attach the Zoo Med Snake Strip U.T.H. to the back section of the terrarium to establish a thermal gradient. Ensure the mat is sufficiently sized to cover the full length of your snake.
For optimal performance, use this heat mat with a substrate layer less than 2" thick. If the substrate is thicker, consider an overhead heating option like a halogen basking bulb or a ceramic heat emitter, based on your setup needs.
To maintain the correct temperature and avoid burns, pairing this heat mat with a thermostat like the Zoo Med ReptiTemp Digital Thermostat is crucial!
