reading about the species
and learning if it will

handy plans for building
a custom professional looking
display enclosure for your
snake. Along with this information
the main items you will
need are: Information, a
suitably sized enclosure,
a water dish, suitable substrate
for the enclosure, a hiding
area within the enclosure
(that your snake can completely
fit inside), a reptile light
source, under tank heater
(if necessary), a temperature
gauge, and feeding
hemostats. A month or so
of food is also recommended
to keep on hand. |
