Alright-
My heat tape-clips and cord will be here tomorrow, I am going to PetSmart tomorrow to get a 20-gallon container & aspen substrate. I already have two hides and a water dish. Plan on buying mice of appropriate size at the show when I get my snake.
Is that it? Have I forgotten anything?
And more questions... I have the option of buying a reptile terrarium ( with sliding screen top attached or a 20-gallon aquarium and a separate screen top and some clip to hold it on. Which is a more secure setup? Which do you have?
I thought that if the detached screen was a little "cracky" I could use some dense rubber weather stripping around the underside edge to make it fit snug. I had to do this with an iguana cage I had once (not that it could have escaped).
Anyway thanks for any responses!
