Preparing for a BCI
So, I really was not looking to add, but I found this pretty lady on kingsnakes classifieds and snatched her up with a deposite. Now I'm using the time I have to make the remaining payment to prepare. She'll be coming from Russo's Reptiles. She is roughly 18-25in long and was hatched 5/25 this year, on fuzzy/hopper mice, which I have ordered and am waiting for(from Perfect Prey).
She is listed as a Possible Super Coral Sunglow and is 50% Het for Moonglows(which I love, 'cause moonglows are stunning boas). Her mother is from the Orangasm Line and is a Coral Sunglow, het for moonglows. The father is from the Lovell Line, and is also a Coral Sunglow.
I would post a pic of her, but the forum won't let me :/
So, the only thing I have available at this precise moment are empty tanks, which I know are not desirable for snakes.. I'm very aesthetic, so whatever kind of enclosure I settle on, I'd like to decorate it and give it a nice, natural look, so that will most likely cost a pretty penny, as well, unless someone knows of a good seller with reasonable deals('cause I don't). I'd like plants, natural safe substrate, vines for arboreal climbing opportunities, little caves for hiding, etc.
I was thinking an ambient temp of ~82F, basking temp of ~92F, cool side temp of ~78F, and nighttime temp of ~78F. Humidity staying around 50-60%. That seem good?
Anyone got any suggestions on good places to shop online with reasonable prices?
