I have a feeling there are a lot of "I just got my ball pythons and want to know if everything looks ok" posts, but asking makes me feel more comfortable than not xD I'm so excited and nervous! I'm finally getting my first reptiles after a few years of researching and waiting to live somewhere where the house owners won't mind scaley things :D
Anyway, don't actually have the snakes yet, but the breeder was nice enough to hold them until we have our setup finished. The female is a pretty nice looking pastel and the male is a mojave (my favorite morph!:D). We're picking up the rubbermaid containers today and spending the sunny afternoon melting air holes in them (my boyfriend and I love having bonding experiences with toxic fumes :P ). The t-rex heat pads are coming in the mail with a heat gun and some cork bark for hides, and the only other things I can think of us needing are water bowls, frozen rodents, digital thermometer/hydrometers, and light dimmers. Can you guys think of anything else? We're using newspaper for substrate so that's not a huge concern
