As long as there are no sharp edges, it will be fine.

Google your area, and bamboo and you can probably buy it locally or have it shipped.

Welcome to the forums.
The question was "may I use the bamboo I already have"

Just don't expect a BP to do much climbing.

They like it down low on and under the ground.

My bp climbs all the time. He is mostly nocturnal and climbs most nights. He loves to hang out in his hammock.

Make sure you disinfect it first. Baking it in the oven for a while will do the job.

ya my ball python climbs all the time too! I built a shelf for him near the top of his enclosure close to the heat lamp.. he uses it all the time. Took awhile
for him to start using the rope ladder my girlfriend made for him though..

I suppose each ball is a little different, but mine have always been such inquisitive snakes that I think they probably will explore the entire enclosure. I ended up building a 6'x6'x6' when I was breeding them and they cruised all over every surface I gave them; high or low. Balls are definitely one of my favourites!

Post pics of your enclosure! I'm curious to see how you set it up with the bamboo
