just picked him up at the Expo..
he's a 6 month old children's python..
the wife was not impressed but I'm hoping since he's a small breed she will warm up to him..
I did a lot of research on them before purchasing so I was super excited to actually find one for sale.. never seen them locally at the pet store and was shocked not many of the employees actually knew what they were..





I had some trouble getting him to eat his first fuzzy because I thought ur suppose to feed them out of the tank and he was really not interested in it.. i waited until night when he was moving around his tank than dropped it in, he snatched it up an ate it no prob so I'm excited about that.. I'm giving him his 2 days then I'll handle him some more tomorrow as I want him to be a tame guy..


Tub is a bit big but they didn't really have an in between size at Walmart. . Was either too small or too big and I really liked the lid locking system on this one



Inside the tank.. I'm not sure if my hygrometer is suppose to go in the tank either but I did tape the probe in the corner of the hotter side as u may be able to see in the pic below..

*i know the Hides should be the same size but the guy at the Expo said i needed Larges but i knew i could fit 2 larges in the tub so i grabbed one Large and a medium, as u see they just fit..


Tank



i do have one concern however.. one of you with a keen eye will notice the tank temp is only 75F.. i've got the UTH on a thermostat set for 32.5C (90.5-91) cuz i couldn't figure out how to switch it to F but it doesn't seem heat the entire tank.. my room temp is 75F.. i was thinking of an infrared heat bulbs but because the tank and lid are plastic i don't really have a way to set that up..
humidity however is perfect with the little water dish.. should i get him a bigger water dish, if i can even fit one?


I did want to get some suggestions on the tank set up however and make sure everything is OK as this is my first python..
I've got a 7 yr old bearded dragon who took a bit of money and time to get his tank right so I wanna do this right the first time..
