    Beautiful snake!

    A couple recommendations

    ·Try and black out three sides of the cage to help your new addition feel more secure. Balls aren't the best display snake anyways.
    ·What kind of substrate are you using? Looks like a form of carpet, glass tanks are not you friend when it comes to humidity or heat, if you find issues I would recommend eco earth from zoo med, holds humidity well.
    ·The analog dials you have are not the best and will need to be replaced in a few months. I have included a few links below of some suggested thermometers/hydrometers.
    ·I would also recommend a UTH that is regulated by a thermostat, do not use a UTH without a thermostat. Flexwatt or a UTH from zoo med are popular choices.

    Also a good overall website for reptile supplies is reptilebasics.com
