New to Hondos, some quick questions!
When I went to my local reptile show I went in wanting to get a corn, but most of the morphs that I wanted were not there, but when I saw my albino tangerine hondo , I honestly couldnt say no to her! Looks amazing! Now I have tried and tried to find good info on hondos, but apparently everything is just general information for milks from what I have came across. Just wondering if I have her enclosure right.
Hot side 86-89 with about 30% humidity. Ambient air is roughly ~75 maybe warmer during the day. And night time temps usually drop down to ~82 hotspot and the ambient air is usually 70.
Also, no one has given me a great answer. Are milks very secretive snakes? I rarely see her move at all. Usually either in one of her hids, up the the plant I have hanging or burrowed some where. She seemed to be more active once I introduced a low watt heat lamp to her setup. Is this fairly normal behavior? Shes about ~15in long and 34grams, maybe her enclosure is to small? I have her in a standard 5.5 gallon aquarium.
Anything I am doing wrong, just lemme know! Just want to provide the best home I can for her! Thanks guys!
Heres a little pic!
