A friend of mine bought her first snake a while ago, and set him up with my help. Unfortunately she had some family issues, so he's moving in with me for the time being. He's still a hatchling, so he can completely vanish in here when he wants to. He's in his burrow under the pothos and hasn't come out yet, but I'll post some more pictures when he does.

I agree with franks, that enclosure is awesome!

Thanks guys. I like giving my animals natural enclosures, even if it means I see them a lot less.

I swear there's a snake in there, LOL. Finally got a glimpse of the little bugger.

And then back to sleep.

Nice looking little guy. Also, what kind of grass is that in the back?

Mondo grass, you can find it in most landscaping places. Hasn't been coping with the heat too well though.

Thanks. I've been trying to grow grass but I'm striking out. My corn's tank is room temp(with a hot area, of course) so maybe this grass would do well.

Thanks everyone. I find it quite funny how frequently the myth is propagated that they need small enclosures. This guy is still hatchling size and was put into a three foot cage from the start. Now that he's come to terms with the cage being moved he's all over the place.
