Re: First Kingsnake: looking for input.
Thanks for the responses guys. Kyle is ambit ' s keeper right? Ok so far it seems you guys would say a built in water aspect would be a waste, and that height would not be utilized enough to make the Hassel worth it? Do any of you guys offer different night and day temps with your kings? Anybody offer a varied diet?

I would say kingsnakes will use all the space you give them, you just need to make it "easy" for them to climb. Ledges and forked branches are probably better than straight perches(like for carpets and gtp's). I used to own cali and speckled kingsnakes and they would climb everything trying to get into every nook and cranny. Your 4x3x2 should make for an interesting setup.

ammit actually chose the aquarium heater box. I had her out one night and she slithered into it and wouldn't come out, so I just placed the box on her ledge and it is now her favorite spot haha
