Considering a woma python

[Captain837]

Sand would be the most natural as they do like to do some burrowing however there is always a chance of consuming and impaction depending on the type of sand or sand-like material you use. I personally prefer shaved (not shredded) aspen. It collects moisture well and can hold humidity should you need to bump it up to help with a bad shed.
Womas dont need much humidity and actually are susceptible to skin issues if the cage is too damp. I keep mine between 40-50%. I will lightly mist when they go blue but I make sure it dries out immediately following the successful shed.
As for temps, womas are pretty hearty and tolerant of a pretty wide range of temps. I keep mine on the same thermostat as my balls. Hot side of 89, cool side in the low 80's.
As for feeding, womas will over eat if given the opportunity. In the wild they primarily eat other reptiles that are low in fat and nutrients so they are wired to eat at every opportunity. When feeding rodents you need to be conscious not to over feed. An easy way to do this is keep the meals smaller and increase frequency. The meal should be small enough than it leaves a small bulge once consumed and feed ever 4 to 5 days.
As far as interaction/handling I highly recommend tap training. Womas feeding response in gerneal is insane. Think of a gtp at night and that is a woma all the time. They are very reliant on smell and visual ques and as a result are very inquisitive. If mine see any movement in the room they immediately come out of their hides to investigat the potential meal. Two of them only require a slight tap of the hook on their heads to know I am not food before they can be handled. One female requides a good 10 min of careful hook, hold and dodge before she gets out of feeding mode and just relaxes. None of them are agressive or defensive. I have heard that all of them will go into and out of phases like this (possibly related to growth spirts?). Still waiting for her to grow out of that one.
Disposition, none of them are fearful or show signs of stress. None are flighty or try to get away. Typically the will hold onto you while they explore their surroundings.
Hipe this helps!
