My official Introduction, meet Anarkhy

[chessfighter]

Now that I found out how to post pixs this is my official introduction.

My users name is Chessfighter because I love playing chess and watching MMA

Meet my new and first baby Ball Python Anarkhy. She's A normal het Albino. But as of now I have no plans of breeding.


(pre-shed)

But before I got Anarkhy @ the Pomona Reptile Expo last month I did over 4 months of research on the proper care for a BP. So thank you all who knowingly or unknowingly provided me with mountains of information on my new love. Which allows me to reciprocate the new found knowledge I have acquired from users on B-P.net.

With that being said...

Over the few months of my studies I came to the conclusion that a rack and tub setup would be the best and most cost efficient.
So a neighbor of mines threw out a used dresser. A friend and I took measurements of the dresser and it turned out to be perfect. (I did have an image of the original dresser but had problems with my camera)

So all we had to buy was a couple of 2X4's


We broke the dresser down and cut it into the pieces and sizes we needed to create a single tub rack.


And this is what we got after about 3 hours of geometry and measuring




And after all the work here's her set up a week or two of me having her


The above take is my African Fat Tailed Gecko's tank. And the sliding board under the tank serves not only as a table for me to set my tub on when I take her out or to feed her, but also's a chess table/board. I also have a small space heater to keep my overall room at a consistent temperature.


My friend who helped me build the single tub rack also let me use his thermometer until I get one


So now that everything is set up and has been going well, here are more pixs of Miss Anarkhy (post shed)










I've had her for almost a month in a few days. She's eaten successfully 3 time and has shed once

And all in one piece so I know for sure I have my humidity perfect.


She has had two bowel movements, one of which was on me


Once again thank you all for your help.


I'm now officially apart of the family.
