    Creating a vivarium for a BP

    I've seen some people make natural vivariums. I've seen them use ficus and I'm wondering about other plants I can use that arent going make my snake sick. Any suggestions

    Just remember, adult Ball Pythons are bulldozers !!!

    Whatever you put in there, has to be very sturdy

    When I get up and turn the light on in my display cage it always looks like a tornado went through there at night. Everything is FLAT on the ground. And Jag peeks out of the hide, quite proud of himself..

    I only use fake plants, though, because live ones would have to be big and sturdy, which means a pretty large cage. Heating and keeping the humidity correct in large cages is a lot more difficult, unless you use ambient heating (heat the whole room that the cage is in)

    It can be done, though, and it very beautiful.
