    New set up! (Again)

    Okay!! Here is Autumn's new set up! This is one she will be in for a while! I still need a tank cling, but otherwise this is it!



    I got a ceramic heat emitter, emergency heat pad (in case anything were to happen to the lamp), lamp stand, a 20 gallon tank, and lots of decor!!
    Thank you to everyone for giving me advice and helping me out! Her gradient temperature is evening out and I'm very happy with the way it's all put together.
    I'm leaving her with another herper for a whole month!! I'm leaving the state and can't take her with, so I'm hoping she will behave and be kind.
    Again, thank you to everyone who helped and thanks for reading!!

    This looks gorgeous! Only thing I might change out is the repticarpet if thats what that is, pretty sure I need glasses so correct me if I'm wrong!

    I'm also super super interested to know if your bp uses the hammock, keep me posted on that cause I bet it would be adorable.

    What kind of substrate is that? I've never seen it before.

    It's not a substrate, it's a carpet. I got it from Petsmart, though they're sold at almost every pet store. I highly recommend it simply because it's easy. You can take it out and wash it then throw it back in. It's not rough on your snake's skin and most importantly: it doesn't get stuck in your snakes mouth when it's eating.
    I used to use aspen bedding but when I would feed her, she would swallow some chips. It's dangerous because it can get stuck in their mouths and cause infections. So I switched to carpet immediately!

    I would advise against carpet. It requires deep cleaning as soon as the snake relieves themselves. There are so many options that re easier and cleaner than reptile carpet that can help maintain proper humidity and are simple to spot clean.

    Impaction is never really an issue and there are options to prevent that even further. sani-chips, coconut fiber, newspaper, papertowels... You also can avoid feeding a wet rodent to avoid caking on substrate.

    Looks great! My only concern would be the plastic plants so close to the heating element.
