I finished setting up the enclosure this morning, and I'm letting it settle in so I can monitor the temps.
Here's the enclosure:
A close up of the left side and smaller hide:
And here's the right:
There is an 8" x 8" UTH under each hide running on independent thermostats and a 100w IR bulb on top which is dialed down with a rheostat. The back and sides of the aquarium have been painted with black Krylon Fusion so that the snake will not be exposed on all sides. There is combination of silk plants, flexible vine and fake branches for climbing, but I think I will replace the vine and branch with real wood, as I don't think this will support her weight. I'll move the flexible stuff into my Crested Gecko cage which is herp project #2.
I haven't decided which side to make the 'hot' side. One hide is slightly larger than the other, but I don't know if that matters when it comes to heating...
