I have recently become very interested in getting a ball python. I have been doing a lot of background work in the last few weeks as I want to have a very strong sense of what I'm doing when I start. I have a few questions that you experienced folks might help me with.
I have decided from my background reading that a homemade enclosure would help me regulate heat and humidity better than a glass aquarium, but I need to balance a size that's fair for the snake and that he'll be comfortable in while not taking up a whole room. Any ideas on dimensions? Also, how does one establish what feeding pattern these snakes follow? I have read that most eat often and well, but how much to feed at one time, and just because he will eat another, should he? Answers if you can, I'll come up with some other basic q's probably as well. Thanks!
