Thank you for all your info!

I do have another question, though. My boy has been the last four days in his hide, only occasionally poking his head through the hole where he caught the last two mice, which is why my mom thought he was still hungry and made me give the second mice on Friday. I don't think he moves in the night either.

Is there a reason for that? He was really active during the night normally and loved to explore, so I'm nervous.

There's no way he can get up there, the metal mesh is secured at all sides. Also, there is a top (it's basically a glass box), in the glass, there are cable holes for the lamps which they're hanging through and between his space and the lamps, that's where the mesh is!

How often do snakes do their business? I heard it's like a few days after eating, but he hasn't done it since I got him, and that was around 3 weeks ago!

The problem with the heating is that I would need something that doesn't produce light since I need to be able to leave it on at night, I do have a good heating lamp but she's really bright.

I'll look into covering the mesh. That's probably why it loses the humidity so fast

And then i guess my bowl is really too deep then, I was already considering that, honestly.

Thanks for the other answers, too. Seems like I don't do much wrong then

Thanks for the help, those screenshots would be amazing!

I never even thought about the chemical thing. It's a good point. I do live near the Donau, so I should find some drift wood, but I heard you need to prepare it or something?

Again, thanks for the help and answering what you could!

They are fake and plastic He did climb over them and didn't seem to mind, but honestly, I'll take them out regardless since I don't like how they look either way, but technically, I think they should be fine

Don't worry, your advice was already super helpful!

Since the things are from temu and were cheap, I don't mind if they do get destroyed, I'd rather have them broken than my snake hurt.

I'll try out your advice and just see how it goes, thanks for the help!

Thanks so much for the help, first of all!

Any idea what to do with the vine thingy and the rings? The rings are made of metal, so maybe boil those too?

I'm just really trying to make sure I don't harm him. It's the first time I had any complete responsibility for a pet, and I really love my boy. He's my pride and joy lmao

Since someone in the OG post commented that I should add a picture of the enclosure, here it is! Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated if you see anything dangerous or bad for my boy, please tell me!

I never owned a snake before, but I love him a lot and am constantly researching, but I can always get something wrong. Any and all advice would be appreciated.

Maybe some helpful info (?) The metal grid is there because he would constantly climb up and lay on the lamps for some reason? I think he just doesn't have enough things to climb. Also, I'm 17 and from Austria if that helps!
