New Pics of my Baby Ball Kashmire

I couldn't find Kashmire this afternoon when I got home, because I looked inside both his hides and behind the one in this picture and didn't see him anywhere. Panicked and thought he got out today. DBF pointed out that he was basking on top of his hide! LOL What a relief!

And his new Accu Rite that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! Best investment of all, IMHO.

And finally, Kashmire's first day. Can you tell I'm a BP newbie who's fascinated with her new baby? LOL Thanks for checking him out!

Thats alot of pics :) Good lucking little one

He's a Q-T-Pie. I went snap happy when I brought Shikara home too. I plan on getting more shots of him when he's done with this shed.

Thanks Coyotemoon! And thanks again for that recommendation of the Acu Rite Therm! I'm thrilled with it!


Yeah, lots of pics, but what can I say, I just had to brag! LOL

Hi Robin,



A lot of PICS of a great looking snake, LOL! Take care.

Kashmire is a sweet lookin snake! Wish we had pics but a digi cams out of the question right now so I'm soooooo jealous of all those nice pics LOL.

Aren't Accu-Rites a wonder! One of the best recommendations we got off this forum was to buy those.

Glad Kashmire is doing so well for you.

Just curious, how do you heat the tank at night?

Adam,


I keep a towel on the warm side of the screen, an unertank heater, and a 50 watt infrared lamp on at night on the cool side. For some reason, that combo keeps my temps contant in the low 80's on the cool side (which isn't covered with towel and allows heat to come out) and the warm side stays in the low 90s. I only have a 1-2 degree change at any given time. The humidity stays in the 40's from low to high. I was up until 3 in the morning last night and would check the temps when I'd walk by and it was constant up until that time, and the same when I got up this morning at 10.

Robin

Oh yeah, during the day while I'm home, I have a regular 50 watt basking light, same set up (as far as side of tank and towel on top).

When I would have basking light on warm side, and towel on cool side, my temps on warm side would raise to the high 90's (very close to 100) and the cool side would be in the 70's, too much of a variance for my comfort.

This set up seems to work well for me. Although, I am going to take someone else's advice about getting some Glad press & seal to replace the towel, as I think that will help hold in humidity a little better.

Robin

Oh, and finally, a thermostat is my next purchase!

Boy, I'm a little chatterbox, aren't I? I also wanted to thank you for your feedback, Adam. I just want to do the best I can for my little guy (to the point of being probably a little too obsessive). I'm constantly reading these boards, going back to older messages and learning everyone's advice. I've learned a lot here!
