    Re: How much do you spend?

    Well, unlike most people, I use tanks, but I will soon be switching to repti-racks vision cages. Just for the set up alone, I spend a good $100 or more, and that does not include the tanks or thermostats because I get most of them off of craigslist or faunaclassifieds. But, any how, between the substrate, fake logs/ trees, water bowls, under the tank heat mats, and hides it is about $100 or so on each set up because I love natural looking enclosures.

    As for feeding costs, I pay $2.00 for any size rat and $1.00 for pink and fuzzy rats a week. So, since there are 52 weeks in a year, I am looking at $104.00 for my adult ball pythons, and $52.00 for my baby ball pythons a year.

    How much they cost me in utilities I have no idea, as I have always had ball pythons, and other reptiles.

    Hope that helps you some, and has some information you were looking for!
