I'm getting my little yellow anaconda neonate sometime this week, and I want to make sure that I'm all ready for her. I've done plenty of research, but there's no harm in double checking.

FIRST OF ALL, there are two hides. One on each end. I just covered them so it would look more natural. But they are there.

My temperatures are 91 at the hottest part and 80 at the cool end. The water is big enough for her to completely submerge herself in. My humidity is about 60%-70%. Two hides, even if you can't really see them. I covered them with dirt and moss to make them look more natural. Oh, and the water is about 75-80 degrees.

It's a 30 gallon, since the babies should be kept in smaller enclosures.

Looks good. What kind of top does your cage have? Do you know what size food she eating and if it's live or F/T? The one question i almost always for get to ask.

It's a screen top, but I've covered about half of it with plastic wrap, and that keeps the humidity at about 60%-70%.

She's eating live rat pups. I'm hoping to convert her to f/t, though. I really don't like feeding live. I love rats. =P

Great setup!

Somewhat of a digression, but Ammeratsu, is your name from Itachi and his last battle? The black fire?!

If not, sorry for asking, but that is my favorite show!

Haha, actually no, sorry. =P It's actually a horribly misspelled version of Ammaterasu from the video game Okami. My sister typed it in one day, not knowing how to spell Ammaterasu and it just stuck for some reason.
