7 months old and only 70 grams?

Thanks guys. All of that is good to know. =)

I already have her on paper towels and plan on keeping her on them. My other snakes don't seem to have an issue with substrates, but with my (very limited) experience with my other BP, all the substrates I tried either retained too much moisture or dried him out. Since I have had him on a rubber shelving liner he's been great, so that is most likely what I'll be keeping her on once ahe gets a more permanent enclosure.

With her tiny size do you think a 10 gal tank would be ok for a while? If not, that's fine, I do have a large tub for her (need to take measurements). I was just wondering if too much space would stress her out. I mean, the tub was perfect for Moko when I got him. He was like 364 grams when I got him.

Should be fine as long as she has plenty of hides and clutter.
