Ok so I got my first snake and he’s a BCI. I got him Fromm Tinley and I just want to make sure I’m doing everything right!

Enclosure
He’s 6 months I’d say he’s not too big at all. I have him set up in a plastic tub that’s 36 x 16 x 14
he seems to have plenty of room to stretch out and roam so I’m thinking it should be just fine for now!
Here’s the container: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Hefty-HI-...3e&athena=true

this is just temporary until I see that he’s starting to put grow it then I’ll move him into something more permanent.

Temps. + Humidity
Right now I’m using a ceramic heat emitter to heat the enclosure and the surrounding area where it’s kept. Because it’s plastic I’m obviosly not going to put it right on the enclosure so it’s a safe distance out.
The cool end is at 78-80 degrees right now and the rest of the enclosure is at 82-84 degrees with a hotspot of 88-89 degrees. I hope this is a good gradient for him? Humidity is at 66% right now.

Food
He’s currently eating hopper mice and I plan to feed him every 8-9 days at his current size but I plan on bumping him up to adult mice in a month or so because he’s almost to the right size to handle those guys.



PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me know if I have some incorrect information or if there’s something I could be doing better. I’m still young but at 19 I’ve been doing research for years before getting this guy and I just want to give him the best life I can <3
