    Thumbs up From Tank to Tub!

    I was finally able to move my Ball Python from a rank to a tub! Goodbye heat and humidity frustration! I'll try to put up some pics of it later. I was also able to put in another hide so he can move from cold hide to warm hide, and he uses both. He'll stay in the warm hide for a while then move to the cold and so forth. Tubs for the win!

    Re: From Tank to Tub!

    Before posting, here is the story of the half logs you see in the pic. Believe it or not, I tried switching to another hide that enclosed him, but he didn't go in it. So for now, I am sticking with the half logs which he actually likes. When I get some more cash I will try another.

    The pics came out terrible, but oh well.

    Get a bungee cord or two to hold down the middle or the snake is just going to pop that right up.

    Wow, Becky, good to hear from you!!!

    Forgive me OP for this minor hijack: Becky, the hypo female is now about 560g! Slow growing but eating none the less. You were incredibly helpful and I continue to feel thankful for your kindness

    OP: Definitely get bungees to hold down that lid

    I just got done doing this same think last week. That tank was just too heave to move around and clean, so out it goes. I'm still tweaking the temps and humidity, but so far so good
