    My BP adventure.
    When I started out on this journey I had not a single clue what I was doing.. then I found this forum. I've hung around here since the second week of august, reading post after post, and alot of suggested materials.. I now have a very healthy yellow belly who loves her tank that daddy made for her.. she is a small garbage disposal, never misses a feed, and is most always active unless she's shedding. She's never hissed, or struck at me aside from one occasion right after we brought her home when I scared her, and she's even won over my husband who was terrified of her when we got her.. so thank you to everyone here who has unknowingly helped me with this journey. This is ms sneaky pants as we like to call her.. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2017...d6144567f4.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2017...096647bd7f.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2017...624ed42d97.jpghttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2017...c5dffdd62c.jpg

    lol the bottles are an interesting decoration. looks like she's a party animal lol.

    i would suggest to top off/cap the bottles. u don't want her trying to squeeze in there and getting stuck.

    Id be worried about them striking one another causing one to break leaving glass shards in the substrate for the snake and owner to find.

    She's to big to fit in the bottles, the one one she could potentially get into is capped, as far as them breaking, the bottles are pretty thick and I watch them to make sure there's no cracks or damage that could cause her harm. She loves to play on them, especially when they're stood up she will purposely go over to knock them down, hence all the bedding on the side with them, so when they fall they're cushioned.. she hides in between them most of the time, almost like another hide for her lol

    Sounds like an unnecessary risk to me. I've broke my share of bottles. It doesn't really take much. Standing them up to then be knocked over is just asking for trouble.

    Certainly there is a better option.

    I don't leave them standing ever, only time I ever stand them up is when I clean her tank out, then once I put everything back I lay them down, the big one is standing, but it's stuck to the tank floor with silicone caulking. I didn't word that very well, the one and only time I let her knock them down I was standing there watching her, as I was cleaning out the tank. She crawled up like her mom this is neat, then went down and preceeded to tip them all over like she was saying nope, I don't like them like that mom..
