Si is on his way home with it now, I can't wait to get it set up and pick snakey up over the weekend...!!!!

He also bought a plant, a hide (lady n shop said its big enough for him to feel comfy but to have half on hot end and half on cooler end?! I want to get another I think though, got his heat mat, thermometer ( get digi one and thermostat as well coming from someone on here I think) some feeding tongs, a couple of pinkies, a water bowl and a feeding tub...

That all sound about right??.

Anything else I need

The bids the lady gave me is rather big and peaches is only tiny, I'm worried its too big? I wanted to get 2 one for each end but without it being really crowded in there I can't fit another one in unless i change the first one to a smaller one? What do you think

you dont need to use proper hides, loo roll tubes and butter pots are firm favourites
