Hello all I'm semi new to Snakes and considering my first ball python :)

[The Serpent Merchant]

Ok now I have looked at the AP-T8 and am kinda leaning on that particular habitat does anyone have firsthand experience with that particular brand/type habitat? also how easy would it be to build a decent habitat d.i.y. style (as my dad can do it) any additional advice would be great and tyvm for making me feel welcome

I own a bunch of AP cages T8's T12's, and soon T25's Top notch quality and great customer service. If you have any questions I can probably answer them.

DIY is a little more complex than just building, you need to source the proper materials first. Wood doesn't handle humidity well, and is very hard to heat through. It can be done but by the end of the build you probably aren't going to save that much money.

PVC sheets, and melamine are best.
