Thank you so much for the pictures. I'm going to the store right now to pick one of those up!



Yeah it is EnzoLeya! I haven't checked my PMs because I've been so busy trying to keep this girl alive and get my breeder rats ready business! (not to mention the two baby horses )

I can't believe snakes don't need or want a larger tank! It's beyond me. So the pet store as no clue what they are talking about and that 20 gallon tank will probably be perfect for her once she's an adult.
Yay! Welcome!

What you have to keep in mind is that pet stores are there to make money. They're not motivated to tell you that you can buy a $3 tub at Dollar General and buy some $.50 plastic plant saucers and solder out entrances to make hides for them.

I also noticed a dial thermometer? Digital is going to give you a much better reading on actual temps.

If you get a chance, go read the PM that I sent you over there - complete with pictures!

Also, folks - she's in Iowa - and she's having trouble finding live feeders that are appropriately sized - anyone in that area have any suggestions where she can get some live hopper mice or live rat fuzzies?
