Hey, Just joined today as I am thinking about getting a royal python. I have done quite alot of research and know all I need to do is persuade my dad. Not sure how to though, I only just persuaded him to get my only reptile a bearded dragon. My mum loves the dragon and my dad likes him to now we have him. It's just not so sure about the snake.
Another question is: Is a 24" Viv big enough for a baby python then move him to 36" as he will be a male. Then have 1 infra red heat lamp with a guard around it. 2 hides on each side? Few fake plants to make him feel secure and Aspen bedding? Temp at 90 degrees on 1 side and around 75 on the other? 50-60 Humidity and a big water bowl that has to be changed daily.
Thanks and I just hope I can get one =) |

| Sounds like you know what you're doing :) try telling him that a royal python is basically a piece of furnature, they don't move alot or really come out too much so he's really just letting you have a big wooden cube lol |

hi and welcome. personly i would go for the vx36, it will give you a bit more floor space and not that much extra in price. you will also need some sealant
