Re: Viv is finished and lots of pics.

very cool. i would place the thermometer a little lower though so you can get a better read, it looks like its right beside the heater.

Re: Viv is finished and lots of pics.

Looks great, did you just go outside and find some nice branches and then disinfect them?

Re: Viv is finished and lots of pics.

Thanks guys , i thought the ladder would be better than a shelf . I got it on ebay , it is a vintage ladder , and has been waxed , so great for keeping clean . The snake makes some great shapes on it !!! . The log i got from the woods , and washed it down , but will have to replace it if he does a mess on it .

I would maybe move it a bit but always set your thermostat with a temp gun and never just go by the setting. (@DD)

Why not just grab a branch, ensure no seriouslu bad bug and toss it in. No need to go overboard with disinfecting. It's not needed. Depending on your method the wood may be worse after than natural.

Re: Viv is finished and lots of pics.

Can someone tell me what a IR gun is . Also some have said move the probe nearer the bulb , and some have said move it away . I am waiting on two digital thermometers in the post today , that also read the humidity. The snake is hanging on the ladder right now , just like a tree Boa !! , and he is haunging right over the heater , he dosnt seem to be intreasted in the bulb area , is this where i should monitor the heat ?
