I am so stressed out i just got my ball python about a week ago she is a beauty. Ive gone to 4 different pet stores and and honestly all of their advice has been uderly R-tarded or contradicting of the last. All of them including 2 being reptile stores are like hurr durr whats a thermostat, Oh you can turn your infrared off for 12 hours a night even though its her only heat source **** WE DO! Like honestly no duh your trying to turn and burn your pets spending the least amount of money possible on them. Honestly i love my girl but i just want to take good care of her but all this bs has left a bad taste in my mouth and a heavy weight on my shoulders. there are so many retards out there who make it utterly impossible for a beginner to even attempt to learn. I know you guys can be a trusted source that will help without judgment I got this girl off rescue and every store expects me to buy this and the next thing at the drop of a hat and if i dont they make me feel like **** and uncomfortable.
She is 3 years old came with a 20 gallon long(needs bigger asap) one hide one bowl a ballast and a 60 watt house bulb
Im strapped for cash but Since i got her, ive gotten zoo med substrate, another hide for the cool side and a 100 watt infrared recommended to me until i can get her a uth currently i run it 24 hours a day cause like i said earlier its her only heat source but it still fluctuates up and down. One of the pet stores told me to switch back to the 60 watt house bulb during the day for her photo period but i thought that would confuse the **** out of her having a huge temp drop when its daylight.
Seriously all i have to say is help i am super stressed will this work for a bit she seems happy shes eating but i just dont want her to turn on me like the pet store people say she will
