    okay lets see if i got this down

    So i made myself a snake rack! its small for now but it will do the job. okay so i have three ball pythons now one is a male yellowbelly, one is a male het pied, and the last is my baby normal female. they are housed in 28 qt. sterilite tubs with newspaper/paper towel bedding, a hide and a water dish in each tub. for heat i have 3 inch flexwatt ran underneath the rear of the tubs. the temperature probe is taped to the flexwatt and the thermostat is set at about 96 degrees. that gives me a temp of about 90-92 degrees on their hotspot constantly, and the ambient air temp in the tubs ranges from 75-85 degrees. humidity is at a steady 60% unless in shed.

    i was just wondering what everyone thinks of my setup, or tips, or if im doing anything wrong? lemme know what you guys think! this is my first year keeping balls!! and i love it so far!!! i plan on adding this year: female 100% het pied, female yellowbelly, and a female cinnamon!! (if i can find one) help??

    sorry no photos, i cant figure out how to work it

    THANKS -JOSH

    Sounds pretty decent to me Just make sure that the temps don't fall below 75, and it will be fine.

    PS. for putting up pictures, you need to put the picture on a photo hosting site (photobucket, etc.) and then copy/paste the IMG code that you get from that website for the picture that you want.

    This is my first year, also, so far from an expert. I think it sounds like you've got a good setup there. The tubs are on the larger side from what I've heard recommended, but you don't have to worry as long as they're eating well. Maybe add a hide on the cool side for the smaller ones?
