Love seeing what ya'll collect =)

As the name indicates, I am a (ball) python factory. Ball pythons are great because a) they are docile b) have dozens of genes that completely change their appearance and c) are big enough to be cool (3-4ft, 1-3lbs) but not scary big. I have a dedicated snake room in my house that is kept at 80F with 60% humidity year round (my wife is the best). It is a fairly small operation: I have two breedable males, six or so breedable females, and about ten sub-adults/hatchlings. I keep them in the Cadillac of snake habitats: ARS caging (see attached picture). I hook up a proportional thermostat (e.g., if my goal is 90F and I'm at 89F, it will only give 10% power) to the snake rack which has flexwatt heat panels to distribute heat. I've attached two pictures: one is a Pastel - Black Pastel - Ghost and the other is a Pastel - Spider - Ghost.
