new member looking for advice

hi guy im winston from the uk and im looking to get ball python soon i have did my own research but i want to know what other people think.

im thinking of getting a hatchling ball python in a plastic tub set up and i want to know what you guy recommend, since im new to keeping snake or even reptiles i want to get as much info as possible before i start buying stuff.
also it would be helpful if you give me links on where i can buy the stuff since there isn't many pet shop near me and thanks in advance

You should be able to find a plastic tub at any store like a walmart.

Reptile basics is a good online option for hides, heat tape and thermostats:

REPTILEBASICS.COM

Pet stores will have any fake greenery you may want and aspen bedding.

Also Walmart for accurite thermometer gauges.

You will need to melt holes into the tub for air/ventilation. I use a soldiering iron found at Lowes or Home Depot.

thanks alot after i compare prices with www.reptilebasics.com and a pet store and see which is cheaper i will buy everything when i can get the money

My favourite place to buy snake stuff is SwellReptiles: https://www.reptiles.swelluk.com/ . They offer pretty much everything you could need for a tub set up, heat mats, thermostats, fake plants, etc. at VERY affordable prices, they stock the big brands, AND you get free next-day delivery if you order over £49 worth of stuff. I was very pleased with their service when I bought my boy Cinnamon's viv and decorations.

Best of luck to you with your new snake. Buying all the supplies and getting things set up is half the fun in my opinion. Don't forget to check into getting an infared temp gun too. Those are so important to make sure the temps are where they need to be.

thanks alot i take a look at both site

Maybe dr del will have an idea about that ...

Hi,

It may be a code blocker or ad blocker problem - I had the same issue recently with the elite dangerous forum. It simply couldn't load the human verification notice on my out of the bag firefox settings. :rolleyes:

Try holding down ctrl-alt-shift when loading the registration page and see if anything pops up that wasn't there before.

The forum is the place for buying morphs at good prices in the UK - though individual breeders also have their own websites.

I always found having decided what you really want and is within your budget was the best starting place. :)

i tried that but it dont seem to work and i even tried a different browser i have sent them a message telling them that i have a problem hopefully they can help fix it but thanks for your suggestion

cool i cant waitto buy one from there, they got so many different type

Morph Market isn't one big store, it's loads of sellers selling their beeps together. It is a great place to buy from, but you should do your individual research on the seller you wish to buy from :D

thanks for the advise i got like 3 weeks to 1 months+ until i can get my ball python, i have already priced out everything i need for the set up all i need to do now is get the money which can take awhile and find a good place or person to buy a ball python that goin to be hard has wel because all ball python look so great
