Choosing a Snake Terrarium

Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village I'm Nicole and I'm here to tell you about king snakes. This terrarium is one of the terrariums we carry in the pet kingdom. We like this terrarium because it's a good size I believe this is a 30 gallon. Now there terrarium are different from regular fish aquarimes because they are made specifically for terrariums. Something you would want to keep a reptile in notice it's not as tall as a regular 30 gallon fish aquame it's kept a lot shorter and made wider for more floor space to be able for your reptiles. This is a good size for an adult python, king snake, corn snake and any kind of other smaller constrictor species that you may come into contact with. This is an enclosure we use for our baby ball pythons notice it has this recycled newspaper sub straight on the bottom. This holds moisture really well and it's very easy to spot clean for us it also has a stick in there for several places for the baby ball pythons to climb. And it has a little plant back there for them to be able to hide in if they like to get in there. Now here we have a water dish it's big enough for a baby to fit inside and it submerged in higher body so it can soak itself in preparation for the shed. We also have a thermometer back here to tell us the temperature for the snakes at all times. We have lights covering across the whole cage here but that's because the lights don't provide heat. They only provide the UVB rays if you need to provide your snake with extra supplemental heating you might want to put it off to one side, and then give their area to hide over here in the other side.
