... I was wondering if any of your snake set ups are able to include the use of real and direct sunlight for the snakes to use in their heating/thermal regulation? I'm betting you do for your varanids?
I'd really like to see any of this kind of set up if you use it.
Many kings are fossorial I suppose but I know you keep other species too.
I remember way back when I had only a few as a kid and how some species absolutely thrived on being able to use it.
Green snakes, racers, coachwhips, southern hognose, and indigo come to mind..(yes, they were legal at that time) All bred well being allowed an outdoors type enclosure. Nothing when kept indoors.
I still use sunshine to induce my southern hogs to breed. It seems to "turn them on" and I'm kicking around making a decent enclosure for them that would include somewhat of a "natural" setting. That's why any ideas or tips would be appreciated.
BTW I really liked seeing those corals from the past.
