    Re: Already want a 2nd BP housing questions...?

After spending so much time with her and doing research I just found out about morphs and the different types! Honestly some of them don't appeal to me, but the one that did catch my eye was the Black Pastel and the Black Pewter. At this point I can't afford one, but after seeing how easy and awesome my 1st one is I definitely want and 2nd. My question....I read and heard that you shouldn't house two BP's together so is there a cheaper way to house my 2nd one? I spent 143 on a kit from petsmart and got additional items. I don't wanna put her in a tub
    While the other one is in this luxurious terrarium and I feel like the rack system would be silly for just two and then what happens to the terrarium I purchased. Any info or ideas would be helpful! I may be all over posting questions! Lol easy on the newbie please!

Also I included a link for a better thermostat.

    Heres a PM that I thought you'd like. Its a REALLY nice setup for two Bps. (or one REALLY big one) Inexpensive, aesthetic, stackable, and it holds stable humidity and heat well. The thread is a good read. It goes through his whole setup. I'm seriously considering getting one and just tossing mine on craigslist. (I'll keep the goodies inside of it of coarse) Although I don't think two snakes is going to cure my hunger... lol! I don't want a huge collection per say. So, i think if I had a few of these for a dozen or so snakes... Wouldn't that be an impressive setup? I do prefer viewing enclosures over rack systems, 10 to 1. With a super nice DIY tegu enclosure on the other side of the room, shelves on top for storage... I can see it nowwwww! I think I may need TWO man caves!

    I hope this helps! Enjoy!
