Re: Please! ASAP!

When you have some extra coin a few branches for climbing would be good. Mine climbs on wood I give him and looks nice too. Other then that looks good. Digital is better then analog for sure but in time you'll get it. I'm surprised they didn't have digital but oh well something is better then nothing. If you have extra coin later you can add a second thermometer on the cold side or use a infrared gun. Good to know the hot and cold side temps though I've read as long as the hot side is consistent where it should be the snake will move back and forth as needed even if the cold side is cooler then it should be. Personally I'm just that obsessed I have extra to monitor it and it wouldn't heat the cold side enough.

I still can get another thermometer haven't left yet. (About $15) Gonna be here until tomorrow. Picking him up tomorrow before I leave for home. There is a bunch of bamboo that grows at home that I can stick in the oven.

Make sure the hides are small enough to be snug. Ball pythons like secure places.

Otherwise it looks fine.

There are a few different sized ones but I could always stick some fake leaves or such to fill in gaps. And if I need other hide I'll grab a plastic container and cut a hole in it.

If it's too big, I can use some plastic containers with a hole. Can't I use cardboard box for it too?

Yes. I do it all the time. If you want something a little nicer go get planter bottoms. The terracotta ones or plastic ones and make holes in those.
