Right now she's in a small glass aquarium, same floor space as a ten gallon but it's only about 6 inches tall. The warm side sits at about 88 degrees and the cool side is at about 76 degrees. There are several hide spots and she spends most of her time between the hot side and the middle height spot which is usually at about 79 degrees. The ambient temperature is a little low I think, it's at about 78 degrees and drops to about 72 at night. I put her water bowl over part of the heat pad so it helps keep up humidity in addition to me misting the cage every day. So the humidity is at 80%. I have a somewhat limited selection of mice/rats in my area. I don't have any "hopper" size mice available, only pinkie, fuzzy, and then adult. I started her out on fuzzy mice and then switched her over to fuzzy sized rat pups. I wish I had my scale out so I could tell you how much they weighed since "fuzzy" and "crawler" are rather subjective terms : ) My BRB has no interest in eating at all, my ball python strikes and curls around her prey but then loses interest...
