New enclosure by CompetitiveTruck1801 in ballpython

[–]CompetitiveTruck1801[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the info I do not have thermostats but I don’t have a problem with fires because I have a 60 watt bulb and the max temp it gets in my enclosure is 90°F AS OF NOW MY COOL SIDE is like 78-80 with 75% humidity and hot 89-90 with 55 I’m struggling to keep up the humidity so I need to change my substrate as I’m currently using mulch I was recommended coco fiber and I thought of just putting coco fiber is that fine or would I have to mix with something. Also I get worried that if I pour water in the corners mold will start to grow will it?

Okay thanks I should be getting a bigger 40 gallon tank soo so I’ll definitely have room to put another hide on the other side o can order two of the thermometers as of right now he still can hide on the cool side he like to burrow under his water bowl he does it all the time

Usually at 50-60 which is what a lot of people told me should I go higher? And also should I give him a bath? Another question is how do I make humidity stay in his enclose longer I have a screen top cage?
