<p>Started work on ball python careguide - mike</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Basic Ball Python Care'''<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Enclosure'''<br /> <br /> Baby: Plastic Shoebox (6 qt bins)<br /> <br /> Subadult to adult: Plastic Sweaterbox (32-qt bin)<br /> <br /> Large adult female: Blanket Box (~60 qt bins)<br /> <br /> Temps: Hot spot should be about 88-92 Fahrenheit with the cool end of the cage about 80 degrees.<br /> <br /> Hide boxes should be provided if you decide to keep your snake in an aquarium. The open sides will stress out the snake so you must make sure it has plenty of places to hide or it may go off feed.<br /> <br /> Fresh water should be provided at least twice weekly. I recommend the water bowl NOT be large enough for the snake to submerge or the snake will defecate and spoil its water.<br /> <br /> '''Feeding'''<br /> <br /> Meals should be just barely larger around than the widest part of the snake. Babies should be fed every 5-7 days and adults can be fed every 7-10 days. If feeding live be sure to watch to make sure your snake is not injured by the prey item. Do not leave rats unattended with your snake or they will chew large holes into the side of your pet.</div>
