I have my thoughts about lights for heat, etc..but in the absence of pictures, I'll keep it to myself. |
I agree deb, pics are really the best to help for giving advice.

40 long, or 40 breeder?
I didn't express an opinion before, but I am inclined to agree with the person that suggested it might be temp related (too warm)

You might be right Harald, Matt hasn't mentioned a thermostat. The combination of light and unregulated heat may very well have the snake trying to find a spot to cool off.
Matt, no one is going to judge you (well perhaps a few will  ) but if you do not put out the correct information with pictures, we can not help and your snake may have to bear the consequences.
