It has been suggested for the first year I should keep my young snake in a small enclosure and use a heat mat.
Should there also be timed lighting? I have a dark apartment, will this effect the hatchling?
Should I use substrate or just paper? If substrate, how deep? I have bark chip substrate which I have thouroughly cleaned to get rid of the dust.
The head matt sits under a critter cage about 15 mm, is this too low and will it still keep the snake warm? Should I have 2 hides? One on the warm area and 1 in the cool area?
How will not having direct lighting effect the python (Murray Darling).
What other suggestions doe people have for keeping young snakes.
Are there any pet shops in central Sydney area that have herp supplies?
