    Adult BP at expos?
    I'm new so not sure if this post goes in this section. The title basically says it all. I was wondering if there are adult BPs for sale at reptile expos? I'm gonna go to an expo to buy a bp and wanted an adult, cuz i didn't want to raise a baby. If so, how much are adult normal BPs.

    -thnxs for any replies

    Question on BP caging
    Is it okay to keep a BP in a plastic storage container? I heard it holds in humidity really well, but not sure. I was also wondering if a container: 43"x19"x6" (WxLxH) is big enough for an adult ball python? Also, will a heat pad melt the plastic storage container? I believe the brand is Rubbermaid.

    -thnxs for any replies

    yes tubs are a very prominent housing method for many ball python owners/breeders. no heat pad will not melt the plastic but just make sure that you have the pad on a thermostat as they can get quite hot. and yes they hold humidity very well, and I'm not totally sure how many gallons that size tub is but that sounds about right in my head.
