Please don't worry about being new and getting "flamed" for asking questions. We have a pretty strong stance against that sort of behaviour around here.

The biggest concern with a 40 breeder is the difficulty in maintaining stable temps and appropriate humidity. Those big mesh lids do a number on that. You should probably consider under tank heating as those overhead bulbs, while they will add heat, tend to suck the humidity out even worse. You might want to check out www.reptilebasics.com and ask Rich the owner for suggestions to heat your 40 breeder appropriately. Make sure he knows the ambient temps of the room this tank is in since glass tends to react to the room it's in and that's a lotta glass.

The other option is to go to a smaller tank or clear plastic tub until your snake is fully mature. The Iris brand plastic tub is glass clear and makes an excellent option to glass or opaque storage bins like Rubbermaid or Sterlite.

Another concern may be a small snake (I assume she's a young one) being a bit intimidated by the large open areas of a 40 breeder tank and not taking full advantage of her hides. She needs to thermoregulate for disgestion and her good health so you need to make sure the enclosure you have set up encourages that behaviour. Ball pythons are very hide loving snakes. They really make very poor display animals as they don't roam much. I have a lot of them and if I went into the BP room right now most of what I'd see is this....
