My snakes are in shoe boxes. I keep them on a bakers rack and use oil lanterns underneath to heat it all. So far taping the lids down works, and as long as I don't mist too much the shoe boxes don't get overly soggy. I use dried up banana peels for bedding since it's free (I eat a lot of bananas). I have been trying to get my balls onto eating ground beef, but for whatever reason no matter how much I rub the rat on it, they just won't strike it... I put it in a tube sock so that it doesn't squish out everywhere when they try to constrict it... any ideas on that?
Anyways,
Naturalistic enclosures are not good for snakes, as they will be exposed to parasites and predators in the wild, so I would have to put those in to make it as 'natural' as possible, you know? I don't want to have to do that. I love my snakes too much.
Also, I keep dart frogs in snow globes and try to inbreed as much as possible to hone in on the best traits. I also love hybridizing localities!
