psychophobia i hope you put your bp in something with a decent temperature gradient and with hides by now. whats that substrate printer paper? snakies going to get a paper cut. that really should be considered animal abuse. please before you get any more animals make sure you have everything it needs set up before you bring it home. im disgusted.

I know you were already "scolded" by the other members, but I have to add that MANY professional breeders use flat newspaper... my snakes all live in tubs, mostly with newspaper as bedding, since I'm allergic to wood-based beddings. Carefresh is the only one I can tolerate, so I give that to the colubrids who like to burrow. Anyway, I have 26 snakes, and not one has ever gotten a "paper cut" (LOL) or been sick.

As for the hides, all but one of my snakes has as least one - the snake who doesn't is Nerissa the BP, as she really doesn't care for them. I tried offering a hide when she first arrived, and she'd only flip them over or knock them around... so instead she coils behind her water dish, or makes a newspaper "tent" to hide under.

Here's Nerissa's 41qt tub (and she's ovulating in this pic!)



And this is my more typical BP setup - Mona, who does like a hide.



And this is my usual colubrid setup... Carefresh or newspaper bedding, 1-2 hides, and of course a water dish.



Kipling the JCP has a couple of branches, since he's the only one who cares for climbing/perching...
