Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

How do you heat your Rosy's cage?
Do you have a heat source above the cage (heat light or ceramic heater), a heat source underneath the cage, or both?

A nice undertank heater, with a thermostat, or better yet double thermostat, or thermostat/rheostat combo is all you need with them. Overhead lighting is useless, as they are always below the sand, and predominatley more active at night anyways.
Just keep the heating pad at a stable temp, and they will be happy and healthy. As long as they humidity is fine, and the cage is clean.
Planning on buying any, or have you already got some?

I've got 4 I keep together. They are in a 4X2X2 ft cage. The heater is a ceramic heater from above. Eventually I probably will get a rack system that uses heat tape below the cages.

That cage is huge for sand boas. I could imagine that being quite a hassel for a keeper to clean if it is a naturalistic setup.

Radiant's are nice. Real safe way to heat the cages, and very natural.
