Hey guys, for those of you reptile keepers in SA make sure if you don't have adequate air con running for your reptile rooms/homes do what you can to keep them cool, especially pythons in tomorrows heat and turn off their heating elements. My house gets oven hot so mine get placed in containers that are placed in a tub of water in the shower alcove in the hottest part of the day. Many people think reptiles just love heat indiscriminately but the reality is if they can't cool themselves down they can quickly dangerously overheat, especially pythons even arid adapted species.
