    Rub size for female ball python
    Hello

    Has probably many know XD from my many posts im getting a female ball python from CB15. She is 7 month old and weighs 300g

    Igot a 70L rub but im having trouble getting humidoty in good point, its always between 45 and 55. Sometimes it 60 but it gets down fast.

    Water is in warm side but didnt notice mich difference.

    Should get a smaller rub? Something like underbed rub of 33L is enought for her whole life? Or get a 50L?

    For her size, yes smaller. Tub gets upgraded as they grow.
    How many holes have you put into the one you have already? More holes is less humidity.

    If thats not correct how should i put my holes in?

    I keep them in 6qt tubs till 4-500g
    The holes in the lid are where your humidity is going. Use hot glue to close those.

    There is no answer to that question.
    Too many variables.
    Start with a couple and only add till your humidity drop to where you want it.

    the rub doesnt have any holes at the moment and humidity is between 70 and 75

    add a couple or leave it like that? (just afraid for oxygen XD )
