    You've gotten good advice so far. My BRB has never tried to tag me, even as a baby (she's a few years old now). Just keep the humidity as high as possible but balance that with making sure she has the option of relatively dry areas of substrate to choose - you want that high humidity but you don't want substrate that is soaking wet or that produces pools of water on the bottom of the enclosure.

    I know you know this but I'll emphasize it just because it'll make me feel better, lol - don't ever let temps go above 85. My girl never actually uses her 85F spot - she hangs out in areas of the enclosure ranging from 75-78F.

    One note I always add when chatting with people who want a BRB - be sure you are clear about your own expectations. These are shy snakes, and while it's true that they are incredibly beautiful, they are active at dawn/dusk or at night, and they are happiest when totally buried under their substrate. If you want a BRB because they are gorgeous and you think you'll get to see her a lot, that just isn't at all likely. I adore my BRB girl, but I love her as she is and understand that getting to see her is a rare gift.
