new member looking for advice

hi guy im winston from the uk and im looking to get ball python soon i have did my own research but i want to know what other people think.

im thinking of getting a hatchling ball python in a plastic tub set up and i want to know what you guy recommend, since im new to keeping snake or even reptiles i want to get as much info as possible before i start buying stuff.
also it would be helpful if you give me links on where i can buy the stuff since there isn't many pet shop near me and thanks in advance

You should be able to find a plastic tub at any store like a walmart.

Reptile basics is a good online option for hides, heat tape and thermostats:

REPTILEBASICS.COM

Pet stores will have any fake greenery you may want and aspen bedding.

Also Walmart for accurite thermometer gauges.

You will need to melt holes into the tub for air/ventilation. I use a soldiering iron found at Lowes or Home Depot.

thanks alot after i compare prices with www.reptilebasics.com and a pet store and see which is cheaper i will buy everything when i can get the money

My favourite place to buy snake stuff is SwellReptiles: https://www.reptiles.swelluk.com/ . They offer pretty much everything you could need for a tub set up, heat mats, thermostats, fake plants, etc. at VERY affordable prices, they stock the big brands, AND you get free next-day delivery if you order over £49 worth of stuff. I was very pleased with their service when I bought my boy Cinnamon's viv and decorations.

Best of luck to you with your new snake. Buying all the supplies and getting things set up is half the fun in my opinion. Don't forget to check into getting an infared temp gun too. Those are so important to make sure the temps are where they need to be.

thanks alot i take a look at both site
