Take everything you read with a grain of salt, listen to the members who have something like "BP veteran" under their name. Moderators know what they're talking about too, but if it says "Registered User" don't go ahead do what they say just because they are a member here. Certainly I wouldn't give you bad advice, if I don't know the right answer I will simply not reply or do a search and give you a link to a thread that has the right answer.


Please DON'T put tape or adhesive in the enclosure, it's an accident waiting to happen. Dr. Del was so nice to give many examples as to why you shouldn't. Your snake wouldn't eat it, but it WILL get stuck. Maybe not now, but it will happen sooner or later.
Alright, don't go saying all the "registered users" give out bad advice, your making everyone seem stupid, I like to think I know what I'm talking about, and I'm just a registered user. I'm not an expert but don't tell a new person that all "registered users" don't give good advice. I do agree though with taking everything with a grain of salt. Don't go by what one person says. Everyone does it a little different. Veterans are definitely great advice givers, but I can name a few that I wouldn't trust, or touch their advice with a ten foot pole. So be just as careful taking their advice...

Whenever I post something on here I take opinions that "make sense" to me, and form my own methods. I like to wait until I get a bunch of responses and kind of weed through the bad advice myself. Do your own research, otherwise you'll never know if you taking bad advice. Theres people on here going crazy with three thermometers, 5 hides, 4 water dishes, etc. This is nuts lol. My setups are very minimal, and I have nothing but great feeders, and not one health problem! By going these extra lengths your not doing anything but spending more money, and being way too over critical. Just be smart. Good luck, let me know if you got anymore ?'s
