    Re: Heat Mat for a Ball Python
    Haha cool I was just thinking about those! I have one of those reptile caves, the small version.

    Which size do you think I should get? If I buy, say, a two medium sizes for a baby python, will I have to upgrade to say, two large sizes or two extra large sizes for when it becomes an adult? Or should I get two large sizes for the python all its life?

    I wish i knew what size I had. I'm pretty sure they are the medium. Since you have a 10 gallon, I would get 2 mediums and go from there. If they are too big/small you can always return them. But the mediums should last a while.

    Just because I am nosey, just wondering where you are getting your bp. :)

    Hmm try looking at the openings and see which one it looks like. Also if yours doesn't have the "crack" on top like the xtra large does, then yours could be a medium or a large.

    You can see the sizes here they show all pics of em: http://www.exo-terra.com/en/products/reptile_cave.php

    Oh ya and also it may be 2-3 weeks before I get my bp because I'll be ordering another 16W mat (the one thats coming in will be used for my leopard gecko) :(

    Yep I have the medium and its actually a little on the big side but she loves it.

    Well the 2 weeks give you time to make sure you are prepared. who are you getting your snake from?

    Cool, I'll go for the medium sized then :D I hope it wont be too small or too big for a baby ball python! How big is your BP?

    As of yet, I have absolutely no idea whom I'm getting the BP from. I definitely won't buy it from a petstore, but I'll try searching for breeders in my local area. Or if you could recommend me some good breeders that'd be cool (I'm in Canada btw so they must be able to ship here :D)

    Medium should be perfect. She is about 20 inches 219 grams.

    You are doing everything perfectly. I'm not sure which breeders ship to canada or are up there. There are many people here who can send you in the right direction just ask around.
