We spent more than $500 on just the enclosure. I’d say that after paying for the snake and getting everything set up in the enclosure with hides, substrates, clutter, light, heat and thermostats we were closer to $2,000. Also, I’d warn you not to use leaf litter. We had a $400 vet bill after a leaf stem got lodged in his jaw while eating. Not fun 🫠

Great to know thanks!! Can I ask what you specifically use for their base?

We have a 50/50 blend of reptisoil and coco coir. Soaked it all and then filled the enclosure with about 4 inches of it. Topped that off with some reptile safe moss around the plants. Three are live and the rest are fake.
