    just being a concerned Ball Python owner...

    As most of you know, I just got a can of PAM today, and well I sprayed it, aired it out, did all of that, now my question is, now that Spartans back in his cage, I notice he is cruising everywhere! now that much be a good thing, but he's climbing, exploring looking for a way out lol, just being a little concerned. and seeing that you guys/girls have amazing advice I was wondering if you could share some with me and let me know if I should be concerned! lol anyways I'm off to work, I hope to see some posts when I get home! Thanks guys!

    My guess is he'll settle down pretty soon and be ready for feeding time tomorrow.

    If you let the tub air out and dry before you put him back, he should be fine. As you said, he's probably looking for his next meal!

    Mine almost always spends some time re-exploring her enclosure after I clean it. I'm sure it smells differently, and stuff isn't in exactly the same spot the snake left it in last time. All stuff that needs to be explored all over again.

    Yeah while it was drying out he was chillin' with me and he found this empty kleenex box, well he loves it, and stole it from me! lol hes now curled up on top of it and hes not even as big as it! LOL at the little guy, I let him have it.. maybe I'll get some pics of him soon. Oh and he's still in his stupid tank that I don't like I'm building a new rack soon.

    I think this little guy deserves a nice warm F/T hopper mouse

    Sounds really cute!


    Just keep doing the best you can with the tank, until you get something set up that is easier to manage. I'm sure it'll be fine.

    Yeah he seems to like it though temps are around 82 cool 92-94 warm, I'm worried about night drop.. poor guy must get a little chilly, i think at night its around 85 warm, 75 cool. I know its bad, but Canada's temps suck.. I'll have to keep the humidifier on tonight, that seems to warm everything up

    how about tossing a towel over the tank during the night? that may assist with your temps.
