    I had to put in an 80-watt RHP for my 1st BP, and it's actually heating up the entire room where I keep all my snakes. Im actually very happy it is because I will worry less come winter! My old house is very cold in the Midwest, and it's usually lower than 70 degrees yr round. I was thinking they'd all need a heat panel, but they're gradients are already benefitting from having 1 large panel in the room. Wanted to pass it on, as I can't be the only one with that issue. ❤

    My biggest green flag is that I have owned royal pythons for almost 10 years now, yet I will still watch every new care guide that comes out. I now have boas and tegus, much more 'advanced' reptiles, yet I still will NEVER say I know everything there is to know, even when it comes to more basic species like royals. Pet care is never perfect because it is ever changing.
    Thank you for doing what you do!

      @zareptiles I use their UVB and DHPs. I just got one of their basking bulbs for my hognose. He is so little and has a heat mat, but want to move him to overhead heating soon.

      I’ll never understand! They are so publicly frowned upon in the reptile community and it’s like the one thing we can all agree on…I can’t believe companies still make them and stores still sell them knowing that

      3 is definitely plenty 🤣 I said 1 was enough… but I couldn’t say no when Kahlua needed a home …. But then I decided what’s one more because they are sooooo good when it comes to being hands on which is a huge bonus for my education business sooooo then I took in Mojito when he needed a home lol! No more ball pythons! 🤣

    Why would you feed a repti link opposed to a rat? Just curious

    • @zareptiles
      @zareptiles  Місяць тому

      More variety and better nutrition! Just like the food we eat, different prey items for snakes have different nutritional benefits. The majority of species aren’t eating ONLY rodents in the wild, which means in captivity a rodent only diet is lacking in nutrients they naturally would consume

    Ball python females are sexual mature after 3yrs and males after one year not 5yrs like boas
