is my albino green burmese python stressed?
I have a three month old burm and everything is set up right according to what i have read about. i have a nice substrate made of organic dirt or something, cant remember but not cypres. the owner at the pet shop said is was perfect; a under tank heater and a ceramic heater. i change it out for a uv heating light during the day for photoperiods. i have two hides…one on the cold and one on the hot. i put her water bowl inbetween the two. the temps range from 73 to 83 in the cold and 85 to 92 in the basking area. Is this good enough for her???
i also noticed that at night she is all over the place in the vivarium and always climing to the top of the cage acting like she wants out; is this a sign she does not like it in there? and during the day, she sits on the cold side wound up next to the glass. have yet to see her sitting in the basking area. note that i just put the second hide in tonight so im not sure if she will use it yet…
Burmese pythons are one of the most, if not the most, susceptible to respiratory infections of any snake. They should never be exposed to temperatures under 80 degrees in their enclosure ever, so 73 is way too low. Keeping it at this temperature too long will most likely result in a respiratory infection. The hot side should be 90 to 92. 85 is too low for the hot side. Find a good heat source and keep it on 24/7. They don’t need UVB lights, and I personally wouldn’t use dirt because it will hard to clean and can easily harbor parasites and bacteria. I use newspaper for mine, but cypress mulch works fine as well. Never trust a pet store employee. Increased activity can be a sign of stress, but it is also a sign of being hungry. Burms have an amazing appetite. I personally start mine out on young rats and don’t bother with mice.
