Rate my enclosure😙
Hi I'm a new owner, I wanted to check if I did this right!
Open for any opinion.
I've just set up an enclosure for my new baby ball python, male, 170g.
I had him for two weeks, he's been in a ventilated storage container.
He's very chill when handled, but doesn't really come out of his hide.
(I've only held him on the first day I got him and the day I moved him to his new home)
I forgot to attach black backscreen before setting this tank up, so I tried to make it as cluttered as possible.
- Size is 60cm×30cm×45cm (small, I know, I'll get a new one when he grows out of this one)
- It's a glass fish tank, I baby-proofed it with just a slit for ventilation (doesn't lift or slide in any direction)
- The lamp is just there for the photo
- Coco husk was damp, I plan to air out the enclosure to regulate humidity
- First floor is half hot zone, I've put film heater under the tank
- Second floor is supposed to be the cool zone with two hides, but it seems like the hot zone side is about 28°C
-Is the water dish too small? That's what the seller gave me
He's not really using the first floor, might be too exposed, I'm thinking of adding more leaves.
Last pic is him giving you a boop.
I hope he likes this setup and show me his face more often.
Let me know if I should change anything!❤️
