10 gallon snake tank

[agspecialties]

I have been out of keeping snakes now for a while. almost 15 years. Had kids and now they are old enough to enjoy snakes with the old man.

Anyway, looking at a young SD Retic that is ready to come home for the first time in the next couple of weeks.

My question is, is there a company that i can buy a complete set up with tank and light and heat pad. I was hoping that i can buy a complete tank and get it warm and right humidity for a week before introducing the snake. Problem is here where i am from we have 10 gallon tanks but nothing else for snakes. All for fish. Was looking at a Vision Tank, but just not sure if that is the best setup. Any ideas??

Thanks

Lots of choices. Animal plastics, Boaphile, Evolution Reptile, constrictors northwest, vision cages, etc. All can be ordered complete with heat and lighting. Just make sure if your putting a little snake in a big cage you give it lots of cover so it doesn't stress out.

Yah that is what i am afraid of. I thought a 10 gallon would be the smallest that i could find that i could control the heat on one side and not the other side. I will look into what you recommended. Thanks for the response.

Plus honestly even a sd retic will out grow a ten gallon very quickly
