Above is a pic of the tank that i have in my house, not sure what tank is actually built for but i use it for my two ball pythons i have changed the setup a little so that one hide is on the hot side and the other is on the cool side, i am using shreded paper for the substrate, using standard gauges for everything no electronics at all minus the heat rock, both tanks eat twice a week and have had no problems thus far with them scarfing down a meal, most of the time i must feed them two mice at a feeding to get signs that they are happy. was curious what this tank was really built for? and what you see that i need/may need to change so that i will haveBIGand happy pythons living here. Am also having issues with there shed recently and one still has most of his head shed on, what should i do? If someone could please show me or describe to me how to get and keep proper data of my snakes, so that i am the best armed for any kind of unfortuante sickness that may come there way. From what i have red sexing seems almost point less if males can probe like females and vice versa, so how do i tell what i have?

And Finally after my huge list thanks for the putting this forum and i hope to be contributing soon to make it bigger and better.
