    Re: new stuff for my bp?

    one suggestion i will make is if you feed live. but a cheap tub for $3-$4 and make a setup with a small water dish and some hamster food. that way if there is a refusal you can house the food item properly to keep it healthy untill it is eaten, just because its food does not merrit letting it starve in some loansome tupperwear container. besides thats a waste. this is what i do. made a lil rat tub. has some aspen shavings in it, food, water and a little house made from a small plastic plan pot with a door cut in it.

    kinda' won't cut it when it comes to your temps. You need to get a UTH, and for a glass cave the size of the one you have, you're gonna' need a big UTH. You also need to get a T-Stat or at least a rheostat to control the temp.

    Using those analog humidity guages is kinda' like knowing what the humidity is as well.

    The best way to make your BP more active is to trade him in on a Corn Snake. You don't want your BP to be more active. A hidding BP is a happy BP. If he's out of his hide doing a kabooke dance all over the place, he's stressed.

    You've gotten some good advice in this thread...please take it.
