    Re: Do you have your BP in a tank or tub?
    I use a tank but really they aren't needed for a BP/ they aren't really a display snake. They spend almost all their time in there hides so having them in a tank makes it seem like you just have an empty tank most of the time.

    I tried out a tank when I first got a ball pythons some years ago. Had horribles problems with keeping the temps and humidity at correct numbers. Moved my snakes in to tubs and could not be happier! Temps and humidity stay at perfect numbers. NEVER will I use a tank for a snake again. Not worth the stress and the headache and possibility the money you'll be spending at the vet due to having your snake come down with issues.

    I just got my first ball python a week ago. Have him in a 10 gallon tank which cost me $14 plus like $65 for all the other stuff in and out of him cage. If you look in the BP Husbandary Section you'll see what problem I have with my cage right now. I have him in a tub right now and he is so happy lol! Im so happy I've read this thread and thought about it. Now when she gets bigger I don't have to worry about spending 300 dollars for a 40 gal setup I had planned.
