First Ball Python PVC or Rack system?

[Soord]

Okay that helps. I didn't know about the difference in thermostats so that would make things a lot more expensive later on. I was thinking if I did eventually want a cage I could get the rack first and then once the snake grew a little larger and I had others to fill in the rack, I could just put my favorite one in a cage. Just an idea, but saving on the thermostat and space by getting a rack sounds like a more practical option right now. Been studying things over for years now and I can finally get one so I want to have the best set up I can so I can start the hobby (: I have also heard once you get one, it is hard not to get another haha!

We had the same idea! lol

Haha great minds think alike. And I'll explain. So many racks are wired up with tape at the back or side so you need just one probe to put in the middle and it should work for the all the heat in the rack (with a little variance between top and bottom) if you get all AP cages you will need a probe for each ones heat system since they are separate. Ive been shopping for a rack and many people recommend going with a herpstat 2 in case of expanding your cage, and it would work well for if you got your ap cage and didn't expand the racks yet. It is extra money though so a 1 works fine for starting out. Also a cheaper thermo works alright but if you can shell out some money for a good one right off the bat it makes you and the snake a happy camper.
