BP not Eating

[Hugsplox]

Before i bought my 1st and only BP, i asked A LOT of questions..I remember 1 pet shop employee telling me that these are good questions that i was asking and as she was answering them only after searching her phone for a few seconds, but she was trying..I also was told not to buy some of the Reptile Habitat Enclosure "Kits" because they contained things i did not need, or cheap versions of the temperature/humidity guages, lighting, bedding and so on, they were being quite honest, that really surprised me...

Yea sometimes you can find a good deal on a "kit" but they're a tad misleading to a new keeper. I think a lot of folks see "snake kit" and assume it has everything that they need in it, only to find out later that they're missing stuff or got equipment that isn't ideal, those stick on temp/humidity gauges are a good example. Now I've purchased kits on sale at box stores before, but only because I was getting the enclosure cheaper than if I bought it by itself.

I hate to keep bragging on my local reptile place, but what they do is do bulk orders on 10 gallon tanks, and then they create their own starter kits out of them with appropriate sized hides, good substrate, digital gauges, I mean a dream set up for a hatchling snake. Of course they grow out of that 10 gallon relatively quick, but it's a great and safer way to get people into the hobby.
