Hi everyone
I have done some homework and read the other threads in the forum and I have come to the conclusion I want to have a basking shelf for my jungle python. I am thinking two selves...one to allow the snake to sit on the warmth and another to allow the snake to sit underneath it.
I have looked at habistat reptile radiators and also at the thermofilm website for suggestions as to the sort of radiator I could get.
the enclosure size will be 1200 high by 900 wide by 600 deep......and I have included a pic of the enclosure I will be getting as reference.
My questions are these
How low should the shelf be away from the heat source
and
what wattage should I get.....50 watt or 75 watt we are in melbourne however the snakes will be in the living room which has central heating in winter.
(PS ia m getting two enclsores one for each snake and they are jungles and the enclosres will ahve wood veneering over the melamine on the outside so will look better than the pic)
If anyone wants the number of the person who is building the enclosures just PM me...I reckon this guy is the best enclosure builder in melbourne)
Many thanks in advance Elizabeth
