Hello everyone!
I am new to these forums, and I was refered here to someone from another forum as I was inquirying about getting a BP.I currently own over 40+ geckos and other types of lizards, and I have never really liked snakes due to fear(watched "anaconda" too many times as a boy) but I love herps and decided to try out getting a BP. So far this forum is loaded with information, and I plan to use ALL of itso props for creating such a great community and I hope eventually one day I can add and help newbs like me.
Before getting my first BP, I went out today and got everything I thought I would need for its enclosure. So, I purchased a 36"x18"x12" tank(to which I think might be too big now after reading some posts), I got two identical hides and I stuffed them both with Sphagnum Moss. I also got a big water dish(to which I also learned they don't NEED, but it can't hurt), for heat I am using a lamp with a basking light bulb in it, and a medium under tank heater. On both sides of the tank I have a thermo and hygro(digital) to monitor temps, And I also got a timer for my spot light to go off at night so it turns on automatically from 8am-8pm.
I think my tank might be missing something, fake pants? rocks?
I've added some pictures to show you what I have so far...
**note there is another hydro/ thermo on the opposite side of the one shown**(old pics).
Let me know if this enclosure looks alright! or if I should add something else, money issnt really an issue so throw at me w/e ideas. I haven't got my BP yet, I am still looking at some, for my tank size what size would you recomend I get? I was told a sub-adult would be best for me as I am a first time owner and they are easier to handle etc...
thanks, any responce is appreciated as I want to make my BP as comfortable as can be when I get him.
