I can't answer your question about the Blackbox shelf, but the ones from Animal Plastics are just a piece of PVC board cut to size, and standard shelf holders are used to install them, just like you would on a regular home wall. The point being, you can just as easily pickup a small PVC or plastic board from a home improvement store or hobby store and make your own.

I've never used a Pro Heat RHP so I can't comment on them but I've heard good things from other people. One thing to be wary of with VE panels is that they smell terrible when they are new and need to be outgassed before you put your snake into the enclosure. If you get a VE, wipe down the RHP with a damp cloth and take it outside and let it burn on full blast for 72 hours or as long as it takes to get rid of the smell before installing it.

Not sure if this is necessary with Pro Heat RHPs, but if you smell any fumes I'd recommend doing the same thing.

Pro heat said it will take about 3 weeks to have the RHP ready, But i have not ordered yet, as we all now i am new owner to ball, its was born on 6/7/21 she is about 91 grams, tomorrow will be her 5th meal, and my first time feeder her, IF i was to order now, about what size would be appropriate for her to be in a T10?
about how many grams or how long?
or would she be ready to go in there after 1yr?

I love my Raptile Basics panels. I think now they're made by VE. VE creates a great product and I have alot of trust in them. I have one Pro Heat panel and I've never been a fan. They're very rough and may possibly hurt the snake. Not sure if the recent design has changed or not. With that being said, both panels have not failed for the last 7 years that I've had them.

Order your T10 now an heat. It could be a year before the T10 is delivered. The wait sucks but it is what it is.

From AP website:
LEAD TIMES | Animal Plastics (apcages.com)

"Current ESTIMATED lead times = 18-34 weeks or longer in some cases for all units except "quicker ship" items."

I have cages ordered for snakes that aren't hatched yet. You'll be happy with any AP cage you get.


Good luck!

Times are getting longer again... I ordered an enclosure in May it was 18-26 weeks then, I've since ordered one in June and one in July
