6-8' full grown, males being larger

Aspen bedding with a sphagnum moss hide kept moist. Misting once a day.

Water dish cleaned daily, they really like to drink.

70-75 ambient temps with a 85-90 SMALL basking area. They do use these to digest meals.

Rodents, birds, fish, FT dor snakes, lizards, anything they can get down their gullets really. I fed my babies one day after defecation until they hit 4' then switched to small meals every 4-5 days.

Poop a lot and require more cleaning, I hit visible poops every day and give the whole cage a good look over once a week. Replace all substrate every 4 months.

I haven't got to breeding yet but next year will be my first go. Talking with others I believe my snakes are actually Unicolors.

Hope that helps,
Nate
