My ball pythons cage has a dead mouse carcass in it!!

[The Serpent Merchant]

Could i get a lower wattage bulb to put in when the tank gets to hot?

Nice tank btw

A lower wattage bulb would work as well. I prefer lamp dimmers because you can dial them in to get the right temperatures.

Thanks!

As for the ball, should i leave her to herself for a couple days or continue with my normal handling? I will definatlely be getting a humidity and temp gauge, and will go back down to the size i used before for the mouse untill she gets a bit thicker. I bought her from petco a little over a month ago and she was quite slim. Doing well though and is great with handleing. Didnt mind be taking her eyecaps off at all.

I would give her 2 weeks to herself, then try feeding again. 48 hours after she eats you can start handling again.

I would see if you can find a reptile specialty shop or rodent breeder to buy your feeders from... They will very likely be cheaper and of a higher quality.

I just noticed that you are in Florida... What part? I might know of a shop nearby.
