Hes Eating!
Sorry for the excitement but my baby BP is finally eating after refusing the first 2 weeks! I made the adjustment after he refused last week and put the tinfoil over 3/4 of his cage to help trap the humidity and ive had a towel over his cage for about a week and a half to help with his security issues as a BP. The adjustments allowed me to only have to mist his cage about once a day as opposed to 5-10 times (and when i had to go out it would drop below 50) so i am very very happy and relieved right now to know that he is feeling better and getting his first of many meals with me!

Re: Hes Eating!
Good news!
I'd say I keep everything but 3 or 4 inches of the top covered plus there is an open strip around the heat lamp so its probably about the same as yours. Much better humidity control. It's alot more forgiving that way!
1.0 Normal BP - "Snakey"
1.0 Jungle carpet python - "Chewbacca" aka "Chewie"
0.1 Olive python - "Cleopatra" aka "Cleo"
0.0.1 Corn - "Husker"
1.0 Veiled Chameleon - "Kermit"

very much so! One of the first days after adding the tinfoil i sprayed before going to bed and it was like 61% after the spray it didnt get to 50 til i was going to bed the next night! A HUGE DIFFERENCE. It was always somewhere in the 40s by the time i woke up in the morning after spraying it right before bed. Found out there was a MUCH bigger difference than i had thought between binders and tinfoil.
