Re: New member with Pastel BP
And yes she is dumb and ate her first mouse (firsr since I got her) backwards. She eventually got it down though and I'm going to try to avoid that happening in the future

Re: New member with Pastel BP
What's the in the middle of your tank? Plastic wood above the water bowl?
I'd say your hands aren't big enough for a snake to live in but he's a very cute pastel.

It's an "L" shaped log bordering the water bowl. I'll get a better pic

You're off to a good start! I highly recommend swapping out your half log hide for two cave-like hides with only one entrance. Ball pythons like to feel really secure with the hide snugly touching them on all sides. Plus it's good to have a hide on each side of the enclosure so the snake doesn't have to choose feeling secure over getting warm/ cooling down.
Also do you have a thermostat for your UTH? It's really important because without a thermostat the UTH can reach dangerously high temps and harm the snake.
She's a pretty snake and I hope you enjoy the many years to come with her

Kira's suggestions were spot-on.
and what did you think to be overkill? imo the only overkill is bulbs, but that's only because i don't like bulbs.
you're going to need two identical hides, otherwise you might find your snake roaming around which is a sign of stress, especially with a light shining in their face all day. that log doesn't look big or secluded enough for the snake to feel secure, but i could be wrong.
ALL sources of heat MUST be regulated. do you have a thermoSTAT/lamp dimmer for all sources of heat? you never state how you measure hotspot temps: a probed thermometer or laser temp gun are good ways to monitor them.
and yes, she's very pretty. congrats!
