another noob, is my setup correct?

So an update on my husbandry, Mr. Sully hit it on the nose, my exo-terra hydrometer is garbage. I just got my acurite in the mail today and just to check humidity stuck it in the tank. . .I'll let the pics tell the story





Now I can accurately measure my temps and humidity and give my Manasa the comfort she deserves.

Awesome Bro!!!
Everything has been coming through great now for you & your snake.

the good thing is i have the time because her current living situation is adequate for the time being and she will be fine (from what ive learned) for at least a couple years, but now that tax returns are about to come in . . . im thinking of making this a backup viv once the T10 comes in. i have been talking to Ali at AP quite a bit lately (super awesome).

also i have a question . . . i have seen different views on the subject, but what is the general rule of thumb as far as handling after feeding, i know that handling after feeding can cause regurgitation. but what is rule of thumb for how long i should wait before handling?

excellent unit and has all the info you need in one package, place the display unit on the "cold" side and the probe under the substrate on the "hot side" and humidity is internal. supplement with an infrared thermo. seems to work well and provide the info i need
