vivarium...

hey everyone new to the site so first post, i have kept lizards before but not snakes and i am hoping to get a bp in the next few months but doing the research and stuff first, and waiting to find the right snake too :)

my question is, would one of those plastic/sliding glass front pennine vivariums be suitable for a bp? ive never used these before, and can imagine the humidity could get quite high, but wondering, can the proper temps and humidities be maintained in one of these for a bp?

i found one with heatmat and accessories included for an extrememly cheap price which is why i'm curious...

thanks so much,
Jess:)

First off, welcome to BP.net! :)

Thats great that your doing research because people who dont are not smart lol

well as for the viv, a baby bp wouldnt be good in a big sliding glass door viv because it might get stressed, so make sure you get the right size. I assume that you can keep the right temps and humidity in one, just experiment for a week or so without the snake. thats what i did and its perfect know ;)

hope it helps! and anymore questions just ask, i, and everyone else here is happy to help you :gj:

looks nice! what are the dimensions?

Welcome to the site! You could use a ten gallon aquarium for a good while with a baby BP.

I think that cage would do just fine. I would put a few tight fitting hides in it though so it would have plenty of small tight spots to hide.

Saw the pic. I must say, it does look nice!
