another post my ball python won't eat

[larryd23]

When I moved my pastel banana BP from an Exo-Terra viv to a much larger RBI viv, he stopped eating for a few weeks. One mistake I did make was not adding enough cover for him in his new enclosure. So... I added more plastic plants and a bunch of loose maple leaves from my local craft store and he ate the following week. Might have been coincidence but something to consider.

Yes,I see that alot on the forums when moving a BP from a small enclosure to a large one,not so in this case she was on a 36x18x17,the new one is slightly larger 36x24x18 she uses every inch of the enclosure but she only comes out at night.the only problem with Radiant heaters is they don't heat all that good,I got 2 on my enclosure 28 watt for cooler side and 40 watt for warmer side and heat mat it keeps the temps pretty good much better then the glass tank,but towards the front of the enclosure is always a couple degrees cooler.i know for a fact when BP are adults there stress levels are less my vet has 2 adult BP one 5 and the other 6 feet long and there pretty chill.
