    New BP Owner !


    Hey! I just brought home my first Ball Python. He is an Orange Ghost Morph, about 6 months old. I was just wondering if any of you had any good tips. I have read the caresheet numerous times before I brought him home, and also made sure his home was ready days prior to him coming

    Currently the humidity is 61 degrees F
    basking temp is 88.3
    cool temp is 80

    I know the basking temp needs to be a bit higher, but I'm not sure how? Do I need a larger UTH? I currently have a M one.

    He also has a hide on each side

    Again any tips are appreciated. Thank You!
