    ok one question i had planned to get 2 and house them in one big cage with 2 "floors" but i decided to only get 1. my question is i was gonna make the cage just one floor since i only got one but the bp i got is already using both floors and i only got him yesterday. should i keep the cage 2 floors?

    what do you mean 2 floors? have you met all of the husbandry requirements for a ball python?

    Hrrm... looks like it would be hella hard to get the temperatures right in that thing, but if you can do it, all the power to you. Also, the more hides the better as baby bp's can sometimes get stressed from having too large an enclosure.
  • 07-02-2004, 02:06 PM
    tdragon
    yeah theres 3 hides on top and 5 down bottom

    You may want to use some fake plants as well. My bp loves them, and with an enclosure that big they need to feel like they are not in the open too much.
