    Sunlight in Tubs??

    I was wondering how you breeders provide a photoperiod of sunlight when you guys are breeding in tubs?...Don't ball pythons need a certain time of sunlight when breeding?

    Yep, thats enough. They naturally dwell in rodent burrows and termite mounds where there is little to no light.

    The snakes don't need it, but the rodent colonies do. I keep the rodent racks and tanks near the window where they can get the day/night they need to cycle.
