I saw that you posted in the Childrens Python Thread as well. Look through the 15 pages to see the evolution of some of the cages http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...ic-post/page15 . Like Skip said they warm up with age, not so much on the handling side. They are very active and love to climb, so I too would move away from the tub and try to produce a naturalistic environment for him. I have a water dish in my cage that is big enough for him to soak in. Everytime I put fresh water in it he is over drinking. My guy is a just shy of 3ft and he is in a 36inx18inx16in cage and he uses every inch of it so much that I feel like he needs bigger. My house ambients are around 75 as well and the only heating I have for his cage is a UTH. I actually have keep my hot spot warmer in the high 90s to 100F range.
