New snake lover in need of tips!

[ZiggiGirl]

Welcome and best wishes with your new BP. Can I ask how you're heating and controlling the temps in your enclosure? Has your snake eaten for you? I try to keep handling to a minimum with new snakes until they've had a few meals. As long as your husbandry is dialed in you should be good to go. Enjoy your new friend!

I use use a reptile under-tank heat pad. The heating pad is about 1/4 of the size of the tank. I chose this option over the heat lamps because of belly heat being more natural to them.

I have a 2 in 1 humidity percentage gauge and thermometer on the warm side (heating pad corner/section) that has a constant heat temperature of 83-86 degrees, and the other side of the tank is always 3-4 degrees cooler. The cooler side of the terrarium has a rock-bath that is big enough for her whole body to fit in if she gets hot.

She has eaten for me once, I've only had her for 2 weeks now.
