I don't know why but heating and lighting are the most intimidating part of my planning process lol.

I highly recommend a dedicated snake room that you can keep at a higher temp

Very good tips! My brother had a ball python a number of years ago. I was about 5 or 6 when he let me hold it for the first time. I would love to have a ball on day! Have a blessed sunday and week 💗

Always find Elle to be the most helpful when making these decisions! As a newer python mama experiencing our first winter together it's been hard to regulate the temperature. Definitely getting a UVB light and going to see some of my supplemental heating options! Does anyone else use a heating pad without "ventilation" I noticed she just stuck it on the bottom of the tank and slid it back in. The new PVC tank I have is not elevated like the glass tank was

I would put a flat stone underneath the heat it will hold heat. Love your videos ❤

My CHE totally destroys my humidity. Without it I can maintain a humidty of 65% with temperature at 55-60 degrees. However once it is on, the humidty drops down to 30%. I have multiple humidity hides, a water bowl underneath the heat emitter, a mix of cypress mulch and sphagnum moss, and lightly spray the tank every day but it consistently brings the humidity back down to 30% or less. I have also tried covering the half the tanks lid with a plexiglass sheet.
