    Could always get a 150W and a dimmer to control it

    You try to cover the top to keep the heat in??

    I like tubs. It dont look good as in like display but imo it seems better for the snake.

    Ball pythons arent display animals anyway. Tanks suck for humidity, I played hell keeping it up. You can use a basking bulb they are around $10 for a 150 watt bulb. Your tank is too tall

    I was stating that because it looks like their dank is used exactly for that. To put snake on display

    Re: New, And a bit worried

    well to be truthful, it's the only suitable enclosure we have, so thats what we use.
    and i have great news, we attempted to feed him, and it went so well.

    we now have a happily fed ball. now we just need to solve the heating problem.

    P.S.- in case anyone was wondering, that cage he's in in the pic is his feeding cage.

    If that is indeed his feeding cage, ditch all the bedding. It also looks wet and dirty in there. I would not use a wire cage even as a feeding cage (I feed in their home enclosure anyway).
