Hi my names Ed, and I'm from London, England.

I'm not getting my BP for about another 6months(long time I know), but I find everything regarding them so interesting that I thought I should just find out what it's all about by browsing this forum, which information wise is excellent. Ideally I'd love an albino or mojave BP but I don't have the kind of money lying around that I'd need for one, so I'm happy with a normal one. So far I've decided that I'll keep my BP in a plastic tub to start with, with all the essential accesories, then as it grows I'll move it into a glass tank.

But first I have a few questions:

I've read that humidity is a problem with glass enclosures, so I was wondering if I could use something like this, as well as a water bowl,to keep humidity up

Also, with regards to the age of a BP, what is the ideal age to purchase one, or doesn't it really matter? For instance, as a relative new comer to reptiles, would it be advised to get a slightly older, but more tame BP? Although I understand that raising your BP from a youngster is half the fun.

Anways, luckily I found this site, otherwise I'd be relying on imformation like this, the place where I'm supposedly getting my snake from!
