The temps are between 74 (night) and 77-80 degrees (daytime). I have him in a medium critter keeper (1.5-2 gallons) with a coconut hide, a water bowl (that can also double as a hide), and about an 1.5 to 2 inches of aspen shavings. The tank is situated next to my Cal king's heat lamp so that the heat from the lamp warms the tank.

The snake does not appear to be prepping for a shed. The small tank is temporary until I can move him to a 10 gallon with a heat pad sometime next week.



I'm sorry I'm being such a nervous wreck. If the snake had a little more weight on him and had normal stools, I would be a little more relaxed.



This is a picture of his tank. Since he's so timid, I'll keep him in this for a while until he calms down. He seems to be less stressed in small environments. BTW, the duct tape is sealing the crack in the plastic. He can't get through it, but sealing it makes me feel better. No little escapees.
