Do yourself a favor and find $25 and make a trip to the home depot. Pick up a piggy back lamp dimmer and an accurite weather station.
Also, a smaller tub wouldn't hurt. I would suggest a 15qt tub for a snake that size. You really only need enough room for two hides and a water bowl. They don't need any floor space to "lay out" on. They would rather spend all of their time hiding.
hey im looking them up on home depot and cant find what it is can you help me ?

when i got her she wasn't into shed her belly is getting slightly pink

Yeah, I thought she looked like she was in one of the phases. Just watch her, she'll get a blue hue to her in a few days, then turn clear again and she will shed shortly after that. I don't think I would feed her while she's shedding. The less stress the better Some will eat and some won't, but with her new surroundings, I think I would wait.

Re: Ball python Very Active
I can't really tell. You'll just have to see in the next few days. Sometimes they will get cranky during shed. It gets hard for them to see. She looks like she has some stuck shed on her neck though. A damp cloth should take that off easily.

The accurite is not on the website but it looks like this:
You should be able to find it in the gardening/outdoor section. Ask an employee if you can't find it
Here is the dimmer: http://www.homedepot.com/Electrical-...atalogId=10053

Re: Ball python Very Active
Hi,
You also need to replace that hide covered in tape before the accident.
You can use upturned plant pot saucers with holes cut in them for nice secure dark hides.
