    After hatch temp

    I was wondering if the hatchlings needed to be warmer then say a fell sized BP. I ask because I want to build a rack to sit on top of the rack I currently have

    1.0 Mojave Ball 0.1 Pinstripe
    0.1 Honey Bee 0.2 Normal
    1.0 Caramel 0.1 Mojave het Caramel

    I keep mine in the incubator until their first shed and then they go into racks and are kept the same as my adults.

    Well you both better put a water bowl in there after they hatch(BG does now). A fairly large breeder was raided because of a disgruntled former employer and Fish and Game told the news media that baby Ball Pythons had hatched out of their eggs and were left to die with no water.

    Absolutely 100% true.
