It seems to be more than enough space for the 3 of them. Plenty of space to get away from eachother, although they are usually all together. They are reaching 2 years old this month, so maybe a little more room to grow. The tank is 32” wide, 24” deep, and 28-30” tall + a deep soil base. So they can all stretch out fully in every direction. Two basking spots, two water bowls, and too many hides to count. I would feel comfortable adding 1 more, but want to see what you guys think. Last pic is who i would be adding to the mix. He looks too beautiful to pass up, although my wallet could use a break😂

Also, i would be upgrading tanks pretty significantly in the next couple of years, so their forever home would be more like a 120 gal.

Keeping all 3 comfortably in one hand is my new favorite neuroplasticity exercise lol. They were pretty darty when i got them, but working with them every day has made them super comfortable being touched/ grabbed. These guys are the best little display snakes, and are a lot of fun to interact with. If it wasnt a challenge to feed them all at once, i would have far too many of them😂

Customer had adhesive floor panels pulled up, and the sheen from the tile is gone. Anyone knows what causes this, and or if its fixable?

I was going to that hose to fill up my bucket for some grouting. Luckily i did not have my headphones on cuz they just died, so i wasnt distracted. I was looking at the ground the whole walk, but i still didnt notice him until the last second. My next step was going to be right next to him/on top of him. My heart has never beat so fast in my life😂

For weeks, i have been battling my garter snakes as they hide in little crevices, created by gaps in my spray foam backround. I have been removing rocks, picking away spray foam, and stuffing all the holes with sphagnum moss as you can see. But everytime i think i sealed it up, i discover an even tinier, more ridiculous entrance😭. They used to all hide in there, but now its just kimchi that hides in there for days at a time. Im debating changing his name to charlie, the way he acts with his crevice (IYKYK). I think today finally marks the end of the crevice, as i just closed up this hole hes coming out of. But, wish me luck anyway😭😂.

None of this would have been discovered or fixed without the endoscope im using to capture this video. I would highly suggest one if you have a very busy tank with lots of places to hide. It was only $20 or so on amazon.

Handling time is no more. She musnt leave the cylinder.

I was having trouble with humidity on the higher level of the enclosure, with it being in the 45-50% range. I added a bunch of wet spanish moss under the heat sources, and bumped it up 20% immediately. Now it stays around 63-68% (when the doors not open) and 85-90% at soil level. It also serves as easy cover for her, in her favorite spot. Thought id share in case it helps anyone else.
