Most of the time this forum is very friendly (rare exceptions), hope you stick around :salute:

Ahn thx !

Is her heat bulb directly in the habitat? If so that is very bad. Ball pythons will burn themselves if they can come into contact with a heat source.

Also it would be best to put a hide on both sides of the habitat. (preferably identical hides) this is so he/she can feel safe while still properly regulating body temperature.

Just make sure the hot side is between 31.1 Celsius and 33.3 Celsius and the cool side is between 25.5 Celsius and 27.7 Celsius. Humidity should be around 50 percent normally and around 70 percent when he/she is in shed.

Welcome to the site and congrats on picking up your first ball python!

Thx man for the info! Today I changed a lil, my heat bulb is now covered and I did some isimo ( don't know the english correct word for it) on the back and the sides for the heat, I'll upload a photo ;)

Here are some changes I made today, I covered my heat bulb for the safety of Pythy and i put some 'isimo' on the sides and the back for the heat. So what do you think?

Is that a heat rock? If so, I'd get that out of there. Those are prone to malfunction and can seriously injure/kill your snake.
