You definitely have a sweet tooth problem. Find out how many kids your dentist is putting through college before you sit in that big chair of his.

This hondo thing definitely qualifies for the space program.

Hope to get "spaced" out myself if any surprises show up here.

Hey, I'd like to know about that grate also. Also, how do you use it? Do you put the eggs on top of it? Outstanding snake! Thanks, Derek

shannon brown Aug 17, 2007 06:41 PM

I have seen many people use it with ball python eggs.Its just to keep the eggs out of the substrate. I have seen it at the hardware store but never tried it cause I have good luck without it and hate to change something that isn't broken.

Certainly no need to change what you are using... seems like you have it down to a science

The grating is called florescent light grading or egg crate. I buy mine at Home Depot.

The perlite is totally saturated in water and I mean saturated... the eggs sit on top of the substrate and never come into contact with the perlite or water however they still remain in 100% humidity

Works great for me... I cook ball python eggs the same way One thing to keep in mind though is to put a little bit of moist moss on the top of the egg pyramid to keep the top eggs from drying out but be sure it isn't soaking water up from the substrate!

I tell you what!! I thought I saw some nice Hondo in Daytona, but you sure have a looker as well as a keeper. If you get tired of looking at it send it my way.

Good Luck
Tom
