Ball Python Naturalistic Setup (Zen Habitats) 

Building my two year old female albino ball python a 4x2x2 the next week. This was very inspirational and your tips with Michael’s are going to save me money. Thank you 🙌🏽

Chaos probably was reminded of his natural habitat in the wet savannah. Even the hide could be a mossy termite mount 😎 also love the combo of high quality life and fake plants. 🎃 and the Halloween theme isn't missing here either haha...

One of the prettiest enclosures I've ever seen,he'll love it!

Super convenient timing for this enclosure video, I finally got my ball python a week ago and I’m so excited to build his adult enclosure ❤️

Gorgeous set-up. I LOVE the suspended branch. And the plants just make the whole thing come together and pop!

So awesome - such a great job Chaos💛🐍💛

I’m so addicted to watching your enclosure upgrades! They always turn out so beautiful!!!🥺💗😍

Awww Chaos is so cute exploring the new enclosure! 🥰 Ball pythons can be so adorable sometimes

Looks so natural Loved this video..chaos is going to love it

I’m so early! Can’t wait to see the enclosure!

I'm currently more into inverts than reptiles, but you inspire me with your creativity! I know your animals appreciate the thought and effort you put into their enclosures 💕

omg this enclosure is literally BEAUTIFUL- great job 😁

I feel this! I am trying to secure my screen top more too bc my BP is a bit of a curious hudini. Lol

It turned out so cool!! I really really want a Ball Python

Super cute!!! I rarely see people add color to their terrarium 😍 and omg Chaos is a banana morph just like my Caesar 😊

I just did a drylok background too! Mine was a desert theme

I absolutely love zen habitats and your animals 👍 🐍🦎🐢🐸

This looks great! I love your ball python so cute 💕

I absolutely love your videos! They are both educational and entertaining, your aesthetics are so nice. I'm always a huge fan of those who continue to try to get the most enrichment for their animals, bin systems seem to take over youtube these days

This is the most basic but most beautiful enclosure diy I’ve ever seen. I’m going this week to Michaels and Home Depot to do it exactly this. AMAZING!! 😍

Amazing job, Tricia! (:

I like watching your video ..i wish u doing a reptile zoo in the future ..best of luck.from Yemen

wow I love it I've been gathering supplies plastic plants branches rocks ..hides .still need the enclosure..just recovered from wrist surgery Dr gve me the go ahead..so .hope to set up all 1st ..of coarse I refer to your videos ty !.I went rock hunting so before putting branches n rocks in tank pur boiling water over 1st in bucket ? oh got some driftwood too .

Also, if you want another source of good fake plants, I really like Pangea’s name brand ones; they have these really bushy plants and also vines that are like 6 feet long and I got a bunch of those recently and they are really nice looking!

It looks really good!😍 Chaos is so adorable and I know he’s gonna love his new enclosure😊🐍💗

Sat on my porch to watch this and kept looking for the loud cricket. It was the video.... I don't mind it, lol.

uggg i want mine to look like this so bad! and you make it look so easy to achieve

Wow Tricia this is an awesome video I love it. :)

Love it! I want to do that for my banana boy Yoshi! ❤️

by end of summer hope to have my dream snake ball python..hope he a sweetie like chaos .oh love your shirt

Ty for the inspiration. I’ve been meaning to move my ball python into his new tank for months. As soon as my mbk snake sheds I’m gonna move him into my ball pythons current tank and move my bp into a bigger tank

Hi there, love your videos and how much you really have the reptile welfare in mind. Can you recommend suitable live plants for a ball python enclosure please? Thanks.

wow he loves his home soo cute night 🌙 shots great 👍

Great video .. Gladly more of it .. ;-)

What an adorable noodle!!!

I love The soundtrack

Awesome! I asked you in a previous video, how do you clean the background of this setup since it has bark and stuff stuck to the back. Also, I say that the Josh's frog bedding is "bioactive" bedding. Can you use the bioactive josh's frogs bioactive bedding on a regular non-bioactive enclosure? Thanks!

YO I'M IN LOVE AND I DON'T CARE WHO KNOWS IT HAHAHAHAHA LOVE THIS SET UP 💕 ❤ 💖

Hurrah for Chaos! He took to his beautiful new home immediately. 🐍💚

zen habitats is very cool

Looks like the Zen stuff comes really well packed. I like how they are nice looking but also very minimalistic which really gives you free roam to design the space however you want.

Your enclosure is lovely. How many pounds of cork bark would you say you used? Trying to figure out how much I'm going to have to buy. Thanks.

Very Nice 👍

Love the setup planning on upgrading my bts to a zen enclosure and eventually my ball python. By the way where did you get those stickers with the scientific name?

Great video one question though how much do you think all of the set up cost you total?

Great Cage, Wonder how this will affect his feeding habit, didn't you have to take everything to feed him? and live too?

You should totally make a video on different ways to make backgrounds. I had no idea you could use drylok. Is it just the waterproof latex formula?

I reckon that's the most beautiful Ball Python enclosure I've ever beheld. Beautiful work. How's the shipping speed for Zen Habitat? And do you have any issues with the (Under Tank Heater)? My Female Ball Python is in a Long rubber tub, plenty of room now but would like something like this in a few months.

Have you ever used low dose UVB with any of your snakes? Also can you use Radiant Heat Panels in the in the Zen enclosures? Their enclosures are my end goal for all 4 snakes I currently have. I love how all your enclosures decor turn out. Handsome boy of course :)

I’m building a similar enclosure at the moment and was curious how the heating pad is in there, is it just directly under the substrate or is there something separating it? 😊

I am curious about controlling humidity with the live plants needing to be watered. Also cleaning, do you use springtails and isopods? Did you use anything for drainage when you water the live plants?

If you won't use the lamps, what do you use for the plants for light?

Hi I was wondering what size Zen Habitat you upgraded Chaos to? I have a one and half year old female ball python currently in a 20 long. I want to upgrade her but I worry about increasing the size too much. I feel with enough hides and foliage like your cage she would be happy and I would love some advice. Thank you.

What size enclosure from Zen Habitats is this? I’ve been looking recently, I’m planning on getting it a baby and housing it in a 20 gallon until it outgrows it (oh, and what’s your opinion on that by the way? I’ve heard lots of conflicting feedback), so I was just curious about it, as well as whether or not you plan on upgrading ever (not that I think you need to, beautiful enclosure I’m just wondering since Chaos is a juvenile, or sub adult? I’m guessing based off of my zero experience owning snakes lol, sorry), and if so, what do you plan on switching to? Or do you think this is good for a full grown adult as well? Sorry this is so long lol, but I’d appreciate any feedback, you’re someone I’ve been watching awhile and who’s opinion and reptile care I really respect and admire. Thanks

I want to do a background for my bearded dragon but I don’t think the spray foam will hold up to him climbing on it.

Awesome video!! I tried to use the Josh's Frogs coupon code, but it didn't work though 🥺

That habitat is gorgeous and it seems really simple! Great job... but there's so many chemicals involved! I'm pretty sure both the foam and the paint give off fumes for at least a week. Do your snakes have healthy coloring, disposition, and feeding activity after a couple of months in these surroundings? I've always only used stuff I've pulled out of nature (and cleaned/examined) in my BP's habitat because I've heard they can be sensitive to many artificial (and natural) things. Maybe I'm being overly concerned?

Nice habitat! Is that live moss on the moss hide? Looks like he likes it!

Is it a necessary step to cover the foam with silicone? Asking because I want to use the foam to suspend some branches in my bp tank. :)

Beautiful setup!! This is super random, but how do you come up with your reptiles names? (They are really amazing and creative)

Is everything pretty sturdy so put together so nth could escape?

Hey! Quick question, I saw in one of your other videos you also put the moss into the background with the expanding foam, I have the same type of moss but I didn’t even think to put it in the background I made because I figured it would die with the expanding foam and silicone. So I’m just wondering how that moss is doing and if it’s staying alive?? Bc I would love to add it to my background I just wasn’t sure if it would keep.

How do u clean this when he poops everywhere?

How can you hook up a radiant heat panel with a zen habitats enclosure

I know this is an old video but how do you clean a background like that without being bio active ?

Where do you put the probe trisha?.thank you

What size moss hide did you get? He looks so happy!

Looking great what do you do for the tempreature? Where do place the heatmat?

Dig the song. Are those your instruments?

is the heat pad underneath the vivarium or is it under the substrate, upgrading my baby to a wooden 6ft viv soon and i never seem to find concise answer to this

Is this one bioactive? Thanks.

I know it’s like beautiful and great for the animal but how do you actually clean them. Seems more pretty and less practical (not hating but just trying to understand )

I didn’t think you could use heat mats in zen habitat enclosures? Or is that just the pvc ones?

The real plants wont bring in mites if properly washed ??

How do you heat this vivarium up?

Nice ball python mansion

Where do you buy your big drift wood things from pet stores around me don’t sell dirty wood that big

Is this enclosure bioactive? Asking because you have live plants and I guess you can’t fully clean out the substrate on a regular basis like you would a sterile basic set up.

It is hard for cleaning this enclosure I guess

Absolutely beautiful home for a cute snake! I love your enclosure setups. I feel you on the silicone. I tried to paint with silicone over foam once for one of my snakes’ homes but oh my lord it was hard, and will probably never try to do that again. 😅 the dry lock seems like a great idea. Are these cages very heavy? I really like the look of these, they are so pretty...!

What size enclosure is that?

zen habitat meanwhile theres an annoying ticking throughout the video up you mic sensitivity

How is you day going😁?

75gal?!

Do I hear crickets lol
