Crittercrazy,

Though you'll get alot of opinions on keeping BRB's, most will agree the temps could be too high. Cool end around 70-75, warm end 80-83 (my adult male likes it slightly cooler than my female, she will often hang out where the temps are around 83-87, where as the male only lingers in these areas after eating, prefering temps in the low 70's). Personally I think the 20 gallon is a bit big for a two month old. Maybe go with a rubbermaid initially then move up to the 20 after a few more months. Up to you but the rubbermaids maintain the humidity well, and you'll not have to mist at all if you keep damp moss over the heat pad. My adults I mist thoroughly once a day with one of those pump sprayers. The bark and moss maintain the moisture well. Check the main page here for the supplies, no shortage of venders.

Post some picks of your new snake!
