    Re: hides....

    Hi and welcome, just wondering, are you using a t-stat/r-stat to control that UTH, and are you measuring the temps and humidity?

    Well he said he had humidity problems so i guess hes measuring humidity. Unless hes just taking a wild guess

    And it dont seem like he has a tstat.

    I tried looking up the vendors list but was unable to.If you see anyone selling flex-watt at the show they might have the hides also

    Re: hides....

    Thanks for all the help y'all...but I don't have a thermostat...I was told I dint need 1 she would thermoregulate herself...and she does do a good job of that (I think) I see her in difernt sections of her tank thruought the day...


    And as for poppin her...she is extremly comfortable with bein handeld...I just kept puttin pressure on her until I saw the tissue pop...and there were none of those little ball things...maybe I did it wrong but I'm pretty confidant my conclusion was right...it xactly how the females did on the instructional vid...

    And does ne body kno where I can find dates and locations for some of these python expos?

    No that might be cuz shes getting too hot so she moves. BUT the uth can get to 120* i know my zoomed does. 120 will burn ur snake(they say kill)

    You deff want to get a dimmer or tstat for the uth cuz if the snake sits on it to long it will burn her if she goes below substrate

    Re: hides....

    Another good way to make a hide for larger snakes is to get an appropriately sized cat litter box, flip it upside down, and cut a hole in the side of it just big enough for the snake to fit through...

    As far as the vendors for shows: If Reptile Basics isn't listed, check to see if Cold-Blooded Novelties is listed. Rich, from RBI and Frank from CBN usually set-up together, and if Rich isn't there Frank will usually have a pile of RBI gear to sell. I'm just not sure if they go as far as Ohio...
