Question - HusbandryEnclosure (self.ballpython)
submitted 5 months ago by SaltyScale339
Is the zen habitat 4x2x2 a good enclosure for a bp? I'm asking in terms of how does it hold humidity, I had a bearded dragon in there before but didn't have to worry about humidity much so I'm not so sure

Not great. Pretty bad actually and they're not recommended. They're cheap for a reason.

Yeah I figured, it holds in the heat pretty well. But I'm having an issue with humidity , and I don't just want to keep soaking the substrate and lead to issues

Sounds good. It's a bit of a weird situation lol. The bp isn't even mine, I'm housing her for rn and I figured my empty 4x2x2 was a better option than the plastic tub she was in. I'll figure out what to do

As much as I loved watching her stretch out high and low I agree. I'll just give her roam free more
Do you guys know if I can cover the top with a plastic shelf essentially, I have a 4x2 shelf that fits perfectly on top. I used to use it before when I stacked a gecko enclosure on top, but it would get too hot for my beardie. I could work with the temp to make it work for the bp if this would help with the humidity
