    here's Izzy! and a question.

    so, here she is. i've had her for a week now (my first BP) and i got her from heather (LadyOhh).



    from what i've seen on the forums, my tub looks way big. you guys think it's too big for her?

    maybe just with height, but other than that it looks fine. i personally use newspaper or paper towels (it's so much easier). Beautiful snake though, Congrats!

    Re: here's Izzy! and a question.

    is the height a big enough deal for me to have to switch to something smaller?

    Shouldn't be unless you are having issues w/ temps and/or humidity that you can't seem to fix.

    That or the snake is stressing out from it for some reason. Even then I'd try the crumpled newspaper trick before switching to a lower tub.

    Nice snake by the way how about some clearer pictures?

    Re: here's Izzy! and a question.

    She should do fine. I have a couple 200 gram balls thriving in big CB-70 tubs. As long as you give them the right temps, right humidity, plenty of hides and kinda clutter things up they really don't seem to notice. It does make it a little harder to locate them though when you open the tub. I doubt if they get little containers in the wild so the overwhelming sky does not scare the beegeebees out of them!

    Looks fine other than if that height causes you any problems but it probably won't.

    Mind if I ask what that white cord is in her enclosure?
