I'm buying a T10 from Animal Plastics (48"x24"x15") and needed some help with the accessories for it. I've read a bunch of threads and can't find my questions specifically so I figured I'd ask.
For starters, my son brought a ball python home from a reptile show. It's over year old and around 3ft long.
Since there are many accessories I can get with this new cage, I want to be sure I get the best things and not just waste money on useless things. For starters, I have talked with Pro Products and I am ordering the PH-12 100watt heat panel. Will any additional heat be required on the bottom?
I want to order the LED lighting for the cage, but I remember being told from someone at the pet store that snakes need special UV bulbs. So do I have to add a screen on top to add the light the snake needs? Or is it even necessary?
Next, is the basking shelf needed or just a waste for a ball?
Lastly, I know a thermostat is needed for the heat panel, and I've seen them range from $20 to close to $400. I want a really good one but not for anywhere close to $400.
Thank you for any help. I have tried to research as much as I could before asking questions, but there are so many different answers, I just don't know what to trust.
