Getting a burm...

cmlreptiles Nov 26, 2005 05:35 PM

A good friend of mine is moving away, and I'm the lucky recipient of his appx 6 month old male burm. It's been pretty much power fed up till now, and is able to eat smaller medium rats. He's currently in a cage barely big enough for him, and I was wondering what ideas people could give me as to housing him better. I have the extra room, and will probably end up building him one for when he's full grown. but for now, whats a good way to house him? Obviously it has to be able to resist moisture with the humidity that will be present, as well as high temps. Also, for heating...is a overhead lamp/undertank heating pad an ok mix? The pad would be more to supply belly warmth during the evening hours.

Well, finally got my first burm yesterday. He's acclimated well and took his first meal in my home just now. Little annoyed at being picked up, but once he's in my hands he's tame as a puppy. Should be interesting to see how he grows and such. But now I have reason to get a female lol. If I do that it's gonna be a green though
