It's all your fault!! and I have a few questions...
You're all terrible influences *cough* Mink *cough* Ziggy *cough* reptitldude *cough* jpsteele80.
It also didn't help going to local herp store looking for wood decor to remodel my other snake cages only to discover they had added more tanks and had a baby coastal carpet who had a nice black and white pattern. I held an adult for a bit but he wasn't in the best mood and wanted to climb me and the store guy suggested not trusting him by my face. The climbing part was cool but the nerves got to me. I could feel the solid muscle of the snake, not sure on length but it was 3-4" girth. Just seems arboreal snakes have a different feel in your hands when climbing you. Now coastals are too big for me in terms of caging but an IJ is in the realm of possibility. This of course got the wheels turning a bit. But I do have a few questions as care sheets vary wildly and are never specific about humidity most of the time.
What size cage does a baby IJ need?
-I have a 10g and a 24x18x24 exo terra that could be used
How fast do they grow?
What size/age would they need an adult cage?
What's a proper adult size cage?
What is the proper humidity range?
Do you just provide a basking hot spot top corner of the tank and let the carpet move around as needed?
