Climbing
I've heard that some bp's like to climb so I was thinking about adding a climbing branch for my snake. I have a sandblasted branch that I got from the store and some driftwood. My questions are,
Should the items be disinfected/cleaned before adding to my setup?
How can I connect the branch and driftwood together and still be safe for my snake? i.e. hot glue gun, zip ties?

First of all they are more for looks. Balls are ground dwelling and not really designed to properly climb. But those branches can be of great help during a shed.
If you got it from the store then yea I disinfect it. A mix of clorahexidine and water should do the trick.

When I gave her the opportunity, my larger girl used a climbing branch. They aren't *all* only for looks. :/

Take a look here: http://www.ballpythonforum.com/forum...&mode=threaded
Also, Balls do climb. My BP does it it all the time, especially when I'm pre-scenting the tank with the mouse and he climbs all the way and stretches out as close as possible to where the mouse is on top of the screen.

Re: Climbing
My BP likes to climb. I took her branch out once to put in a larger water bowl and she stayed in her hide for a week. As soon as I returned her branch she came out and climbed on up.
