Have got myself a young yellow-faced whip snake and was wondering if I could get some advice since trying anywhere else is pretty much impossible. Being my first snake and being very novice to keeping Herps is kind of scary :lol:
He is roughly 20cm long or round abouts and still very small. Feeding him is all new to me (being my first snake) he has eaten a young gekko and that was fine but trying to get gekkoes is extremely hard and I was wondering what kind of food I should be feeding him.
His encloser at the moment is an old fish tank. Dimensions 40cm long x 21cm wide x 22cm hieght. I found out that they can grow to about 80cm in the wild. I want to replace his encloser but I am unsure to what I should replace it with. Also lgihting and heating as well...any suggestions would be great.
Below is a picture of AJ in his current encloser. He has a water dish and a basic heating lamp which keeps the tank at around 29 - 30 degrees.
any help would be greatly appreciated and I love what you all have done here great work.
