I have my carpet in a giant 4x2x2 Rubbermaid I have wooden perches screwed into it that has the light above that and my snake room is heated . She spends good time on the perches it's cool watching her hunt off of them. I just added a showbox Rubbermaid in their for a water dish to help with a hard poo and she now seems to be laying in it to help her shed now haha.
