    Exoterra Tank experience?

    Hi,
    I want to use an Exoterra Terrarium for an adult Ballpython. I live in Germany and Ballpython keepers here don't use them, why I can't get information about the experiences with that tank.

    Is it possible to keep the temperature and humidity in those tanks?

    Greetings from Germany!

    Yah it is, but if its a wired top on the exoterra (Some come with a plastic top some come with a wired mesh) then cover 2/3 of it with aluminum foil to help keep in the humidity in.

    I love mine. I have 3 of them. I covered 3 of the 4 areas of the top with contact paper to keep the humidity up. Works really well and the snakes have all shed without issues.

    I have 2 Exo terra's and they're okay. They're difficult to keep the right temps and humidity if you don't use foil, but I like having doors on the side instead of having to go in from the top.
