BP set-up? How to clutter?
I have a terrarium that's about 23 gallons, and I currently have:
*3 hides
*2 fake plants
*large water bowl
*a cardboard paper towel roll (no paper towels of course)
I have a baby BP (not quite a year), and I'm looking for suggestions on how to clutter? I've read that this size will work if I make it super crowded with a bunch of stuff.
Is there anything specific I should put? A climbing branch (will my BP actually use it?), more plants, more hides?
Any info would be much appreciated. I also have 3 sides of the terrarium covered (all but the front) and 1/3 of the screen top (damp towel to keep humidity in). He's also in a super quiet room that we never go in.

Yup. I keep my snakes on it.
Make sure to ask what he prefers though. I forgot to give my fire the comics one week and he was pretty disgruntled to say the least...

I've used it without problems in my tubs with all my snakes - I use it as a substrate too with paper towels on top for a "clean" look (well, until someone drops a pile...)

Okay, I'll add some of that. For the first 2 1/2 weeks I had him, he spent all of his time hiding, which I took as a good sign, but recently he's been roaming almost all of the time, so I moved him to a quiet room and am trying to clutter.

Thanks. And will do! Wouldn't want him to be upset about missing the comics

Indy often uses her (low to the ground) climbing branch to "bask" at night.. I think it's good for them to have some obstacles/daily stimulation.
