    Perfect guys thanks... I am feeding using Frozen Hoppers so I'll try an in the tank feed at first. And I guess my BP is happy because he hasn't left the new hide i put in there for him since I put it in!

    So let me get this straight. I could just put the lamp in the center of the cage and under the tank heater on one side and that's fine??

    One more question... Idk what kind of BP I got. its no special breed or hybrid, just the usual from the pet store, what's that called?

    Normal, wild type, classic... there are a few names.

    As for the heat lamp/UTH thing, as long as your temps/humidity are right, then do what works for you. If you need to use the lamp to bring ambient temps up, then by all means, put it there! I highly recommend a temp gun. Thermometers are read by you (or whoever might be working with your snakes) and not your snake, so there's no need to get something you have to leave in the cage. But again, whatever works for you that gets the snake what it needs.

    When feeding frozen, if having trouble, there are quite a few tricks that a lot of people use. If you have any issues feel free to ask, I'm sure you'll get lots of help here. Good Luck!

    Didn't anybody tell you? We require payment around here.

    Don't worry, it's not gonna be much money. As a matter of fact, posting a picture of your snake may get you off without having to send any cash. Most people around here are quite happy to just look at other people's balls (how's that for out of context! lol!).

    OOOOH SO PRETTY! I love the normal look better than most morphs!

    Can you cover 3 sides of the tank with dark construction paper or something? I think it will be much better for your wee one. :)
