If your snake is a younger bp get the medium. Do not get anything smaller than the medium bc the smalls are very tiny. Get 2 so your snake has identical hides for the hot and cool sides. They are very dark and secure. I use them now for all my bps and will for my future snakes.
Thank you for your advice. Will the sounds of the hair dryer scare her since she's new? Also, when should I try to feed her again? Should I wait next week to try again?
