It might have been me, but from what I understand, this goes for most of them. Also, Keep the humidity under 45% or they will stink slightly. They do not like humidity and only need a water dish after feeding for one or two days. I personally will always have a small spot for these awesome snakes, but I just want you to have a good experience with them. Best of luck to you and post lots of pics!
Thanks for the advice, I need it. I'm pretty new to snake keeping period (I've had my BP for a year and my corn for 7 months) I've read everything I could find on them and it hasn't been much. For some reason most of the info I've come across is more concerned with breeding them then just their general care. I'm continuing to look for more information. There seems to be a debate about the water dish for them, some say give them a shallow dish at all times, some say offer water only a few days a week.
Basically, I'm going to bug the guy I'm buying it from half to death with questions. And I still have everyone here to bother with questions as well!!!!!
