    Ugrading the Enclosure well....eventually. Questions.

    As long as there’s enough hiding places and clutter, and she’s a generally well-adjusted snake (not a picky feeder or anything), then I personally would feel comfortable moving her into her adult sized enclosure in the near future.

    A lot of people use T8s for the BPs (4x2), but there are a couple of different models that would be appropriate depending on your preferences/needs. I personally don’t like anything shorter than 15” because it’s hard to get in there myself to clean, etc.

    Most common heating methods are flexwatt (heat tape - a form of UTH) or radiant heat panels (RHP). Some do one or the other, some do both. Depends on your preference and what your temps are like in your house.

    UVB is not necessary but some find it beneficial. It doesn’t hurt. You could also do LED if you don’t want to go the UVB route. You will want some sort of lighting in there, though, otherwise it’s a black box... so you can imagine it would be hard to see and pretty dark inside.

    Temp and humidity gauges work like in any other enclosure. You just put them in there..... There can be holes/slots made in the plastic when you order to accommodate the wires for probes if needed.
