My bloods are either in their hides or burrowed in the substrate. I have never had one show interest in climbing. The setup you are describing does not sound very well suited for a blood python and is not addressing the question of the op. It sounds more like a setup for a arboreal snake.Originally Posted by JoeNapoli
in a tub of ~3' height the temp dif betw bottom & top will have a range of >few degrees, esp via keeping a large water receptacle in one corner, the temp can be lowest there ~80 and then objects/material inside the housing (e.g mound of substrate, hides, bark, branches, etc) can provide a platform near the top of the housing where the temp can be >85... Set-ups like this require more space, time, & $ investment vs racks, and so are not feasible for collectors
Do your bloods climb?
If this is the setup you are using with them post a pic. I'm interested to see it.
I keep my big girl in a 48*24*15 pvc cage and have three smaller ones in a rack system.
