Yes, it is a w/c. From N.E. kansas. I read somewhere that they "might" eat a cricket, or some other soft bodied insect. That being said i did not think it would. I have owned boas, and pythons in the past. When i had a baby ball python i had to feed it first in a brown lunch sack. Seemed to work. Right now it is in one of those "Critter" cages used for tarantulas with aspen bedding. the cage is large. i have 40 plus gallon tanks with heat pads on the bottom, but i have read not to put such a small tank in a large area or they freak out. I had to sell my larger snakes 6 years ago and still have a lot of stuff. I have heat rocks as well from other reptiles but i have read they can burn the snake and to use a heat pad. right now he does not have heat yet the temp in the room is 72 right now. will a small reptile heat pad melt the plastic on this cage? anyway, i am going to try and put some pictures on here. thanks for you help. I also read they dont need special lighting because they are nocturnal.
