    Few questions..Water temp, misting and nightlight?

    Soooo a few questions for you all...every morning before work I swap out Juju's water and refill it. I use tap water and a drop or two of Reptisafe. Does the water need to be a certain temp? I've yet to see her soak or drink. Also at Petsmart they mentioned misting Juju.... Do I mist the entire terrarium with Juju inside or just Juju? How often? Last....Juju has a UV lamp and 75 watt head lamp plus heating pad that's on during the day at night I turn off the UV lamp and heating lamp and turn on the night lamp with the UTH on 24/7...I was told that as long as I had the UTH I didn't need the night lamp because I live in Florida. I'm worried though cuz I sleep with our AC on and 67 and don't wanna freeze the poor thing.

    I don't bother with ReptiSafe - just room temp tap water here.

    This thread will answer a lot of your other questions: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...With-Pictures!
    Along with this careguide: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...s%29-Caresheet

    It's hard to answer how much or how often if we don't know your starting points. Do you have a thermostat to control your UTH? Do you have a hygrometer to measure your humidity?

    Also, welcome! I'm sure Juju appreciates you asking questions about getting her the best care possible!

    I have a thermometer, getting a hydrometer tomorrow....is there a thermostat that I can attach to my UTH to control the temp? Or to I have to buy one with it? Thank you for the resources.

    Yes, but not from PetSmart. There are three listed in the first link I gave you - for three different budgets (under Step #4).
