Is this better? I know it looks crappy, but I'm working with what I have in my office right now.
Also, I can't afford to buy heating pads and substate and stuff until the end of this month. Will the snake be okay until then as long as I keep the room warm (75 or higher) and give him a light/dark schedule?
I can probably find some kind of water bowl to use, but it has to be large, shallow and heavy right?
You can get a heat lamp to provide heat to the tank but make sure the snake cannot come into contact with the bulb. Ball Pythons do not need a water bowl big enough to soak in. Just as long as they can drink out of it you'll be fine.
