alot of people here use different things & all have opinions about other things but you'll ultimately need to decide what will work best for you.
do you have 2 identical hide boxes, one at each end so the snake will have a place to hide at whichever temp range it wants to be in? the reason for "identical" is so the snake is not choosing one hide over another sacrificing needed heat for security, which they'll do sometimes.
& then are 3 sides covered to ensure the snake doesnt feel too "exposed"? bp's are definitely not "display" animals.
always remember "A hiding bp is a happy bp."
Ok, i just took note on everything, and sure i need a thermostate, will make my life easier, i'll get one, about the hides, yes, I have 2 identical hides, and i just covered the 3 sides of my bp's enclosure with a wonderful rainforest background..... thanks a lot for your comment it's nice to know i'm doing quite a good job, just want the best for my new pet! thanks again!
