Care sheet for BHPs

Hi, Just wondering if any one could give me a few care instructions on Nt BHPs, Im about to buy an adult pair (these are my first bhp s). The female of the pair has been off her food for the past 3 months and has a nose scale missing.
Any tips on correct Cage requirements, heating,feeding, winter, breeding, etc.

Any info would be very very appreciated.
Thanks dee.

Yes, hope you're getting them very cheap, as you may need the extra money for vet bills.

Thanks for all the info. Ive decided against buying them.
However i would like to get a pair of BHP s in the near future. Just wondering what requirements they need, ie cage, temperature, feeding etc ?. Do they require the same care as morelia pythons?.
Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have them and don't do anything fancy. I provide them with thte thermo gradient as most would and feed them as per I see fit. I have had no special care for them.
