New Snake Owner
I just bought a two-year-old ball python on Wednesday and he is doing well. I hold him about fifteen minutes a night. I feed him today the, the store I bought him from has him eating live small rats but I have a couple of questions. I have read many things and they all seem conflicting
1. Is it better to feed him live or frozen thawed? It does not bother me to feed him live.
2. The store told me all I need is the heating pad, no thermometer, no lights, is that true? I have been changing his water everyday.
3. Is the aspen bedding better, or newspaper?
4. He is in a 20 inch long, 10 inch deep, and 12 inch high is that big enough.
5. What is the biggest size place he will finally need when he is full grown?
6. Do I need to have a vet check him and his poops out for disease ( he was captive breed)?
Thank you for any advice you can give.
