Hello I just bought a 7 year old 3' 6" ball python a week ago, and they kept it in a 48" net cage with no humidity, it only, only, had a sheet size heating pad under its hiding place that was it, so i bought it, i sold the net cage and bought instead as someguy told me, a cheap sterile 33"x18"x24" plastic container, it works great for ball pythons! it had unshedded skin i rubbed it off with wet towel and so on, but now is healthy, a bit stressed but not sick or anything
my main question now is, it has its hiding spot, and i know its 33" container is cold for her(75F.), but not is hiding place, it at least has a heating pad under it to keep it warm, but now.. the heating pad is not enough for the wholeee container only for its hiding place, how do you keep your snake in warm temps? also when you say basking does that mean "its resting/hiding place?" and what is the temperature for the REST of the cage? i heard it has to be around 85F. and like 90F. for basking but im not sure what is that, i think is its hiding place... but im wondering how you do that, the undertank heating pad is useless as it only heats its hiding place, and it doesnt keep a special temp for its hideout and another special temp for the rest of the container, what should i do? Also how do you keep the humidity level above 60&?? a humidity box is expensive and i see no snake keeper has those...
