    temporary home
    ok so i should be getting a new female early next week, hes keeping her paired up with a mojave for another week. well im in the process of build a kick ass tank that ill post teaser pics up of later (kinda like i did the the beer cans, thats about finished by the way). so what are some ideas to keep her for a few weeks. i was thinking a shoebox and just duct tape the heater that i was going to use on the other tank to the bottom of it. any other ideas?

    Get a plastic Iris or Stearalite tub from your local discount or home hardware store. Way better than a shoebox and it won't fall apart after the first pee either!

    A Shoebox will not keep a snake from escaping.. Unless it is super strength mega cardboard.

    Like McKinsey said, Plastic tub.. and make sure you have a thermostat.

    LOL!!!

    Didn't even catch that... (Coffee hasn't kicked in :firstcup:)

    I was so caught up on the cardboard thing...

    Must be one of those rare dwarf BPs we tend to hear about.

    Or even better - just wait until your enclosure is ready before having her shipped to you.
