New ball in side tank

[Bloodborn25]

Just got this new normal ball from soldans like maybe a hour or 2 ago an all the supplies(for right now later on it will get better/more later) it's pretty awesome looks beautifull too. Maybe when in about 3-5 days I can start my 10-15 minute handling sessions I can get a pic for you guys then idk about the sex it's about two feet long (in a year or that I will get it probed or do it myself I've done two snakes so fare under a breeders eye asked him if I could try it.) I just love it so fare believing its a male tails end is longer an skinny not short an fat. :3 either way I'm just fricken excited XD.

It's always a good idea to cross reference the care sheet. A warm and cool hide are important and only fair to your animal. The ability to measure and regulate temperatures at the snakes living level is probably something of a priority as well.

That pic is pretty hard to see. Take one in the light and tell us about your setup.

It appears you only have a half log hide and a water bowl. Half logs are not very good for bp, they do not provide a very secure home. A hide that is snug with one way in is best. You also need two, one warm side and one cool.

If you have a under tank heater you need a thermostat.

You also need to be able to track the cage temperature (ambient cool side and warm, and surface on the hotspot) and humidity.

Your screen to looks to be open. Using aspen and a screen top you will find it impossible to hold humidity. You need to search the forum and find a watt to cover the screen. Most common fix is to use foil tape and cover most of the screen, leaving only a hole for the lamp and to allow air exchange.

Also depending on the task size you may want to add plants, drift wood, etc to add more security for the snake as it moves about.
