Setting up a Ball Python Display Cage 

THANK YOU. Every time I see a comment complaining about a cage with decor in it, I wonder if those people lecture the wild animals about too much stuff in their habitat, too.

yeah I agree about not keeping them in plastic bins.this cage is still to small. its good for like.....the first year and a half or so especially if you have a female (which I have by the way.) they need to be able to not burn themselves don't the light fixtures 40 - 60 gallon tank is what you are going to have that snake in the rest of it's life...... they like tight spaces so don't be cheap ! buy a few extra hide's in the cage. I use two, plus one shed box , once a month 1/2 when she is in shedding her skin fill a Tupperware container big enough for her to fit in and that is the best way for perfect shed's sometimes you need too let the substrate dry or you will get mold so this helps a lot.

Want to get inspiration on building your own ball python skyscraper cage? Check out my latest video on how to set it up!

Stacia Hill the one thing she missed is the water pool on the other side so don't forget that, if you don't it's not the end of the world but it's recommended

Actually I'm sorry I put the wrong thing down, you must put two water dishes on the hot and cold side, sorry for the mishap

your snake is finaly full grown now XD

@@eugene9133 this is true

How’s the snake going bud

@@mottlenex5738 Yes, I wanna know too.

Tiger Claw me too

Zoo med forest floor bedding is 100% Cypress Mulch. Just re-branded... Mixing in some eco earth is good, but can dry out quicker, which is why we like cypress alone, but both are ok to do. :)

+OptisaurusPRIME Where have you checked? I've seen people go to dollar stores and get stuff similar

buy them on there website

DewTheDrew you should never need more than a 20 gallon tank for any size ball python.

Look no line

Eric Salazar you mean 30 gallons

Not true. I'd say only the smallest adult BPs should be kept in a 20 gallon. 40 gallon tanks will work for pretty much all adult BPs unless you have an abnormally large one.

Kenneth Reyes ball pythons don't need any more than a 20 gallon tank for their entire life span.

i would have it ready before;)

Lee Harvey Oswald All he did was state an opinion that doesn’t matter. And continued to say he liked the video. Being a dick much? Because it’s too cluttered for my taste too but still looks good and still a good video

Komatose MKDOA for ball pythons clutter is actually beneficial because since the walls are glass they tend to feel exposed therefore it’s actually import that you but more “clutter” in the tank so they feel secure.

*because I don't want my snake getting to hot.

Well, if you're putting it next to a window you would still need a UV lamp (UV rays don't go through windows, long sciency story) and maybe a heat lamp. A heat pad is generally ideal, as that allows the snake to thermoregulate (change its own body temperature by moving to different areas, basically). And if it's warm enough in your room you won't need a thermal lamp.

Allosaurus Rex should be fine with just a heat pad on the warm side

Snake snakes don't need a uv light
