show off your set up!!!

So I'm a reasonably new snake owner, and I really underestimated how much I would love building my BP's habitat! I know a lot of people just keep it pretty simple for their snakes, and i'm sure thats fine for them, I think this is all for my own enjoyment at this point. I'm really into nature and flowers, and it's so fun to rearrange it every month or so after collecting a few good pieces of snake 'furniture'. I have her Viv in a corner of my dining room and I really enjoy just watching her scoot around it in the evening while my boyfriend watches TV haha. I recently got some LED lights off of eBay for REALLY cheap, and they make a cool low light that i can flip on to creep on her a little without lighting up the entire room :) My Lucille is albino, and I love how her colors look next to all the flowers and plants. I'm always interested in new inspiration, and I'd love to see what you keep your snakes in!

Ohh I love it!!! Where did you get the platform/rocks you have on the sides of the enclosure?

they're fake mushrooms! A local pet store sells them here, but I've seen some on eBay and amazon as well :) http://www.amazon.com/Pangea-Magneti...mushroom+ledge

That looks professional and beautiful! Albinos are awesome, I vote you post some pictures of her and show her off. :gj:

How did you get them to stick when they're magnetic? lol Just want to know before I order any :)

She's still a little camera shy, but i'm hoping to get some more good ones soon since i just added the lights :)


Also for the ledges, i Just hot glued them on. Everything else still moves, but the ledges didn't seem secure enough with the weird sticky things that they came with (idk why they say magnetic, mine never had any...) I got the actual Viv on sale for a great deal, so i'm not too worried about keeping it super pristine.

She's beautiful, and so is her enclosure!

Ditto on the ledges. Those are awesome. Totally going to have to get some for Orochimaru, he loves to climb. Love how your viv is set up, and your pretty albino.

this is Elphaba's home. :) she's in an 18 gallon tank that i've cluttered up over time and she has a few hides and stuff. she's currently napping in her hot hide on the left. she likes to roam, climb and burrow. :D

Fiyero started in a tub and i put him in a tank last month thinking he would be my last snake. :rofl: it's the same make and size of Elphaba's. he's got a few hides including the skull. he's also in his hot hide on the left.

and then my other BP's have more humble homes. basic tub, hides and waterfowl in a rack. i think i'll add plants and stuff to their individual tubs soon tho.:P

ahh yes! Hmm I wonder if theres a way around that... but they still look awesome :D

I really like your enclosures Kit. Those ledges are awesome. I could use an enclosure decorator. :)

I bet Ginger loves to explore. I like how organized your thermostat and such look.

i just got her background picture I ordered in today, it's the tetons because I think they're beautiful :D and I figure Lucy won't be too much of a stickler for background accuracy ;)

I've seen some of those terrariums at my local pet store. Are they better at retaining humidity than fish tanks?

I mist it in the morning , but it's stayed well thus far :) I think my house is more on the humid side though too.

We just got Atticus his new cage today. It's still a work in progress, but already a huge upgrade from his original home! He explored for a bit before settling in under the heat lamp. It's still warming up in there :) It's from Showcase Cages.

these are all awesome. I was telling my boyfriend that I want to make mine like a 'fairy forest'/ 'baby dragon nest' theme for her haha, have you guys ever made a 'themed' habitat? I figure as long as the same needs are met with hides and such, it could be fun to get abstract with what they look like :D I should maybe mention that I do art for a living so thats where a lot of this creative mania comes from!
