Amazing guide. It really answers everything someone needs to know.

This doesn’t take into account that we now know ball pythons are semi arboreal and that their diet consists of mostly birds when they are young and that the males tend to continue to hunt birds in the trees as a main food source (70% of their diet). Females become heavier as they age and, with the added weight, eventually start hunting more small mammals on the ground. Try adding ample climbing opportunities to your enclosure and you’ll see your ball python climb and assume an arboreal hunting position when it’s hungry. We also now have heating elements that provide better sources of heat than heat mats. Heat mats only produce infrared C (IRC) waves and you want a source that provides IRA and IRB because they penetrate muscle to warm the snake instead of just heating the skin. Providing UVB has also been show to spike the vitamin D levels of captive snakes, which is indicative of them having low levels to begin with. Providing UVB can help rectify this. For more updated information on snake husbandry, check out channels like Reptiles & Research, JTB Reptiles, Animals At Home, and Lori Torrini.

if we have a heat mat on the hot side set to a 90degree temp. And a cool side at 78 to 82degrees do we need a day heat lamp and a night heat lamp? The middle of the enclosure reads 77 to 82degrees ambient air temp? We've been reading so many different takes on a ball pythons needs and would like to eliminate the use of atbleast 1 heat lamp

Do you need 2 hids 1 on the cold and 1 on the hot?

In still a little lost , I just going to use 10 gallon for my new ball python when it arrives since its below 800 grams and will move it to a PVC enclosure once it over 800 grams my question, is how much reptichip do I need for a 10 gallon tank. I bought a block , but do not know how much to break off.

Just a inch or two honestly depends if you have a strong under the tank heat source
