Re: hellooo!
I have a shih tzu/cocker spaniel dog, I asked him "what should I name your new brother?" And he sneezed in my face. Soo I named the snake Sneezy!

Re: hellooo!
Lol, my horses names are Gibson and Mase, dog's name is Texass-Mickey, so I figured the most badass looking animal I have should have a sillier name

Re: hellooo!
He is in a 3.5 foot long, 22" H 22" W glass tank, with an under tank heat pad thingy, he has a 75 W infared heat lamp, another 100(I think) W infared heat lamp, and a 75 W 'basking lamp', the 2 infareds stay on 24/7 and I turn the basking lamp on during the day to bump up the heat. Right now he has some wood stuff for substrate, I'm going to empty his whole tank to scrub it clean as soon as I decide on a substrate. I'm thinking of astroturf, any comments on that as a substrate?
With all those lamps, his warm side stays at 80 degrees, I'm sure how else I can bump the temp up another 8 degrees or so. I'm sure there is a better way to heat his tank, but as I said, I'm new to the snakey world. There is sooo much conflicting information on the internet that I have no idea what advice to take... So fire away with advice, please!

Re: hellooo!
Go buy a che saves money in the long run but dont forget to get a thermostat as well as they can get really hot. You might wanna buy a heat gun your thermometer might be faulty w/ those lights your temps should be much higher
