I finally have a snake room

And to celebrate, I got a kahl albino female and a 100% het male to go with it.

10' x 10' and it is at 72 degrees constantly, backed up by a 5000 watt generator if the need be.

I'm so happy I could pee.

It's not quite complete yet, I have another structure to move in.

It's not nearly as cool as some of your's, I'm certain, half of it is storage, but it's freaking great.

Any advice is totally welcome, I don't have any experience with this. It has to be way simpler than I'm used to, though.

Tuesday or Wednesday I'll have pictures

Re: I finally have a snake room

Ok, pictures. My cell phone does its best, but, well, you know.

Not much. A 10'x10' room. I don't have any racks, my guys are pets that are hopefully going to make babies someday.

There are some things I need to improve, the male BCI in the middle of the big structure needs something to climb on and junk. I'm sure there's more I can be doing better, but everybody eats and everybody poops so I figure it's good for now.

There are 1.1 adult BCI in the bottom two enclosures of the big structure (one in each), a 1.0 jcp in the top. To the left of the big structure, there is a 1.0 adult ETB (didn't get into the picture much) and a 1.0 100% het albino BCI yearling. To the left is a 0.1 albino BCI yearling.

If anybody has any ideas, they're welcome. I could be a little more space-efficient but it's good for now.

A snake room is a snake room! Most people would be so lucky to be able to have the space to dedicate to their animals! Very well done.

Snakes are the best roommates.

They are clear about their feelings. They're quiet.

I pretty much think that that part where you know where you stand with them is the best. I don't know about your's, but mine have pretty clear lines.

I don't know a snake without a clear line. They don't like me or care for me.

--Absolutely! Some of them get entertained right out of our family room, while others come in for a closer look! Case in point: Thanksgiving Day we had a dozen entertained guests wanting to hold our BP, while at least three entertained guests were heading for a different room.

Such fun!

Hahaha, three slightly less entertained guests I imagine.

OK, OK, I concede--they were definitely less entertained! Although one who said she couldn't stand it the first time getting the BP out was brought up later said she was too relaxed to get up and leave--so she stayed and watched.

Maybe I should have said some of the guests were entertained, and some were entertaining . . . ?
