Hey guys.
I just got a pastel ball python today! This is not my first ball python, but this is the youngest one I've had, and I just want to make sure this little guy is comfortable, please let me know what you think!
I have him in an 18 x 18 exo terra terrarium.
He has a water bowl that's about double his size right now.
He has two separate hides, one is a cave that has damp moss inside (I haven't seen him in there yet).
The other is a regular half log wood hide.
He has two sets of fake leaves and branches that he loves to climb on.
Last he has a massive rock and stick that stretches over some of the bottom of the tank and reaches up towards the light of he wants more heat.
I have a thermometer/humidity reader in there, and it's above the leaves and branches, towards the top of the tank.
Its super hot in New England this summer, which worries me because when I had his heat lamp on, the thermometer was climbing to 93 degrees F and may have gone higher if I didn't switch to his night bulb.
im using 75/100W bulbs.
the humidity was right around 80% (but I just misted a few minutes before that).
Let me know what you guys think!
