Got a question.

I forgot what its called, but the pet shop says this is the best for these snake witch I think I doubt it... Anyways I changed around my tanks, Switch the log and some stuff aroung and today I cought the bp on the log chilling close to the light.

Anyways here are some pictures could any one tell me what times should I have the light on and how long like for example 1am - 3am etc.. I usally keep them on at night from 10 to 6am is that good?

thanks.

see that blue light would i be able to put it in a tank maybe not right?

No dont put it in the tank, also get rid of te care fresh bedding. Its not good for reptiles, grows bacteria very fast and cause problems.

Its okay to use for display at shows but not on daily exposure.

alright so that pink bedding is no good? whats the best cheap affordable one i could pick up. i may not be able to get it till friday but i want to know for now.

Having light on the snake 24 7 will stress it out. I didnt know that when i first started and my boy didnt want to eat and was really stressed out. Heat pads work wonders. and no heat source (heat rock etc) in the cage. snake will burn itself

Papertowels is cheapest and best IMO

ya i know not to use heat rocks but for now till i get a UTH when should i have the lights on and lights off?

as for paper towels how would i use it do i cut them up into strips? or can i use newspaper?

I just buy paper towels and tare them as i need to fit the tubs. Lay it down 1-2 layers depending on your temps and youll be set.

Stop using lights. Get an under tank heater on a thermostat. Ball pythons do NOT need light and I agree on using paper towels as bedding. Just lay a few sheets down. Newspaper laid down in the same fashion also works.

Hope you aren't using the aquarium lid posted in your first pic anymore....
