my new baby girl Lola

Hi!! im totally new to ball pythons but i find them sooo intriguing. I drove over 2 hours to get this girl. I found her on craigslist, she didn't even have a hide or a thermometer in her cage. I felt so bad that I just had to get her. I now have her in a rubbermaid container that's about 41 quarts. She is currently on aspen bedding because I thought she might have mites because of the condition she was kept in. I have two probe thermometers on either end of her container. I am using an under tank heater with a dimmer at the moment until I can get a thermostat. Her cool end is in the upper 70's and her warm end is about 90. She is about 3 years old and about 4 feet long. The guy I got her from said she has never bitten anyone and has only hissed a few times during a shed. She rode on my shoulders the entire way home :)
