Hi everyone and nice to see so many enthusiasts at the same place.
I will get my first ball python on sunday and I want to know if what I went shopping for is the right stuff to get me going. It is a 5 year old and I dont know the gender yet.
Here is what I use:
Terrarium:
100x45x50 equals 225 Liters or 59,4 US gallons.
I use a 28 Watts heatpad 28x42 cm
I use a Thermostat that has two settings. One for daytime and one for night-time.
I have a 40 Watts heating lightbulb. I will set the daytime to be 12 hours.
I have a cage for it
I have drinking bowl for it.
I use cork bark.
I have a branch in there.
I have a thermometer/hydrometer installed on the hotspot.
Am I good to go?
Any other advice? It is going to be moved 1 hour by car. Is there anything I should know about a snake that has recently been moved from one owner to another?
It is used to eating live mice. I want to train it to eat frozen. Live is such a hazle.
Any advice on that subject?
