THE OR IS NOW AN AND!
Due to wails of protest from the six year old when I mentioned possibly re homing the BP when it is healthy and the BPs totally nonthreatening personality, they have agreed st allow both with the understanding that it is a hard limit and I am not to rescue any more reptiles regardless of the situation.
I am SO HAPPY! And am NOT going to mention the fact that the carpet is going to be more active and willing to bite.
I will be modifying a shorter tub for the ball Python and moving the carpet into this enclosure. I can soak the tub in chlorhexidine and move the plants, bowl, and hides but how should I go about sterilizing the branches? They are real wood with metal screws inside them.
