BPnet is a good site, but they came to the discussion forums HERE so perhaps we can try to help?


to the OP:

I use rack systems with flexwat. There are lots of different ways to heat, a lot can depend on what type of caging you will be using. An under-tank heater or a radiant heat panel would probably be good choices for a single enclosure. The main thing you'll want to do is get a nice thermostat to regulate the temps (and avoid overheating).

Since I have quite a few snakes, I buy bulk frozen feeders. When I had a smaller collection I did breed my own for a while but found I was spending more time and effort caring for the feeders than the snakes they were for. Depending on where you are, there may be local feeder suppliers that you can get smaller quantities from that way you don't have to breed your own.

Good luck!
