Keeping roughies

[bpb02]

Hey all I am looking at getting a rough scale python next season and was wondering if there are any special requirements for these guys I love the look of them and think they would make a great addition to my small collection

 

[No-two]

I havn't had them for extensive periods of time, but they seem pretty basic to me, I keep them on a rack with antaresia and some other young carpets, very easy to keep, one of mine perches, the other doesn't, I normally don't give anything perches but I like the roughies They're very very cool snakes.

Any pics would be great

I havn't bothered taking any good photos, they're out of focus and pretty crappy but here you go.

 

[bpb02]

What is the general enclosure set up for them and are they a active snake or do they love to hide 99% of the time

 

[No-two]

A tub, perch, paper towel, no hide for mine, they perch or go under the paper towel, water bowl, snake.

Did you see my setup...

No.

 

[bpb02]

Um what is your setup. Do they spend any time on the perch or do they just chill out under the paper towl

 

[No-two]

They do both...

 

[dragonscrawling]

No.

It was a rhetorical question implying we have the same setup.

Couldn't kill em. I keep one in a slitherin python rack. Some verticle space will give them some exercise. here what i keep my hatcho's in to power feed.

I just bought one from Snake Ranch - he's coming next week I've been wanting a rsp for a while but couldn't justify spending that much money, so its awesome the price has dropped.
