    I am thinking I should loose the light on this as it might cause undo stress. What do you guys think?

    Cool enclosure! Looks great, except...

    Where are the hides????


    The light shouldn't stress your snake as long as you create a reasonable photoperiod (12 hours on / 12 hours off or something close to that), and as long as s/he has a small dark area to get away from the light (i.e. a hide :gj:). How are temps?

    Ahh the hides, shes getting side one of them in the pic, they are both placed behind the branch on each side, you just cant see them in this photo... They are those little coconut halves. Temps are 82 and 90 RH is high 50's.

    the lights no problem like previous poster said as long as its a good photoperiod.
    its a baby bp in a 10gallon?
    id say its good,two hides,water dish,substrate,a nice obstacle,some fake greenery,good temps.
    wait is your uth is regulated by a thermostat.?if so :gj:
    the background really sets off the enclosure.
    your setup is better than alot that ive seen.goodjob:gj:

    Yes, sounds alright then. Nice setup! But if you have natural lighting in that room, I'd say you wouldn't need the light too badly, But keep it there for when people come over and you use it as a display(: that would be pretty. But on a regular basis, I dont really fancy the idea of my ball having a bright light shining directly down like that.
