Ball Python Upgrade To Zen Habitats

[@CAMMIE444]

I think it’s so darn cute when snakes seem so skeptical about new environments 😅 and then when they become brave enough to explore it’s just 😍😍

[@reptiliangarden]

I expected him to be a little more shy honestly, but he’s always out and about in it 😍

[@brunoricky7966]

a tip: watch movies on Flixzone. I've been using it for watching loads of movies these days.

[@skylersalvatore2335]

@Bruno Ricky definitely, I have been watching on flixzone for years myself :D

[@reptile-lover2532]

Casper will be easy to see with him being white and everything else being a dark color

[@skylarutd]

U guys in the USA are so lucky. Getting all these things around u is such a big plus.

[@caragelbart8581]

It's great! Love how bright white he is against the dark background! I have thought about sticking a fake jack-o'-lantern in my enclosure as a seasonal hide. I think that would look cool for Casper! You definitely have the space 😂

[@reptiliangarden]

I love that idea!!! 🎃🎃🎃

[@Killjoybb]

I loooove this. How do you clean your enclosures though?

[@lindsaysmythe9820]

You are literally #goals!! I absolutely LOVE the way you treat all of your babies! Bowie has always been my favorite of yours- but I think Casper is right up there with Bowie now!! I love you reptile room- between the animals and plants- that is every reptile girls dream! Keep doing what you are doing- it's so awesome to see a woman do as amazing as you are in this hobby that, for the longest time, was male dominated.

[@reptiliangarden]

Omg thank you so, so much! This means a lot to me. I appreciate your support ❤️❤️❤️

[@avaogara]

this enclosure looks amazing , love the sticker n Casper too .what temp you keep his heat pad at ? n you place probe exactly where ? .

[@happypets5753]

I know that you will not see my comment but I wanted to tell you that you are a wonderful person and your animals are very lucky to have you ! 💚

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you so much!!!! 😭😭❤️❤️❤️

[@happypets5753]

Omg

[@zenhabitats]

Beautifully done!

[@loganuselmann1853]

oh my gosh he's sooooo little

[@janinakins9861]

Omg I LOOOOVE this enclosure! I like the spooky theme! It's really great to see themes in enclosures besides just naturalistic. Great video as usual!

[@annalies_animals]

The enclosure looks so great!! And Casper is such an adorable snake 💖💖

[@thereptigade7507]

You found a very good balance between a themed and naturalistic enclosure! Your friendly ghost is almost literally the icing on the cake presenting the perfect illusion as expected 😎 don't think he's too small for his jungle castle anyway btw...

[@reptiliangarden]

Jungle castle is the coolest description! Thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@wko4597]

I watched so many of banbas videos and I now have a veiled Chamäleon which is 3 months. I would like to ask you how many small Dubais and small desert bugs I can feed him per day so that he does grow properly but won’t get to fat ? thank you

[@avaogara]

I watch n rewatch this video.just love watching you set up enclosures .I have moss growing on landscape timbers in yard .is that safe to put in tank ? n sorry what size was this tank ? .Casper looks mystical n amazing

[@stuckinthelazycorneragain4016]

I think using both verbal and written explanations are good! That way people with visual impairments and hearing impairments can both understand in detail! Though that might be a lot of work for you I’m not sure 😅 Love your setups as always, you keep inspiring me and giving me new ideas!!

[@nezumidjinn5547]

I really had doubts about the paint but when it was dry it looked great !!

[@reptiliangarden]

It is so much easier than using silicone too 😅😂

[@LandisBroege]

Can you list all the stuff you used like the type of moss and stuff please

[@kayleetabor2714]

I want to make my enclosures elaborate like this but I'm concerned about cleaning! What is your process for changing substrate and sanitizing furniture?

[@avaogara]

Casper loves his new home n its beautiful how big is Casper now ? N love always your music too

[@joeanthony3013]

I'm looking into zen habitats for my ball pythons. You attach the heating probe between the heating pad and the enclosure? What do you set the thermostat at, and what temperature do you get on the inside?

[@kaiexli]

Can't wait for the room tour!! Casper is too cute

[@aaronyu1859]

Hi Trisha, I like those reptile stickers on the enclosure behind you. Where did you get them?

[@angiecuyar2677]

Oh I adore it Tricia 😍👻🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

[@reptile-lover2532]

Love the enrichment

[@Numocron]

Wow Tricia this is such an awesome video right here I love it.😃👍

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you!!!! ❤️

[@Numocron]

Reptilian Garden You're very welcome. Much love.❤️

[@maralr.659]

Where is the tree decor from? Need 🥰

[@beachaddict7653]

Where can I get the plexi glass that you have in the front of the enclosure?

[@blakegrant4251]

Do you think I could fit an UTH underneath the bio basin plastic liner and it would be fine? About to build my ball python zen habitats enclosure. Debating hanging a heat lamp in there or on top of the screen, but may just keep my uth.

[@livingridleonsen8393]

My baby cornsnake is only a couple of weeks old, i have a glass terrarium that i’m pretty sure is a 40 or 50 gallon, could i put her in that now? i feel she might be way to small still, she still is in a pretty small box that in length is longer than her

[@reptiliangarden]

As long as you provide a lot of hides and foliage, there’s nothing wrong with a big upgrade! You just have to fill it out 💕

[@antoniogonzalez4534]

I could of watched hours of this. I know you spent a while watching him. Did you add a cleanup crew or going to clean as needed?

[@tayloralexandra9507]

Oh my god ahhh it looks so good!! 😍😍😍

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@geremystoltz2721]

Is there a specific reason why you used Dryloc rather than just a gray flat colored exterior paint?

[@fillurlifewithfun]

Do you do heat lamp or just the under the tank with these guys?

[@stuckinthelazycorneragain4016]

When he fell haha, so cute!

[@MaryVerdugo]

I looooove it ! Came out amazing

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you so much, love!!!! 💕💕💕💕

[@sarahangell3463]

Oh my gosh so beautiful!

[@maddybissell3]

Hello! I have the same enclosure for my ball python and he manages to wedge his body through the acrylic doors without actually sliding them. Was wondering if you ever have that problem and have ideas on how to escape proof your zen habitat for a sneaky bp.

[@reptiliangarden]

Reach out to zen for door wraps! It prevents any snakes from squeezing through! They’ll send it for free!

[@maddybissell3]

@@reptiliangarden thank you!

[@marshamccay3315]

Hey do any of your snakes escape zen habitats? My boa (she isn't 100% full grown) escapes my 4x2x4 EVERYDAY we first thought it was the wire plug so we closed that off yet she still escaped so we locked the doors. Fixed right? Nope, it turns out the doors bowed away from each other and left a gap for her to nose her way in between. I contacted the company and they said that it happens and they have a solution to fix it, but I would have to wait months to get it I live in a very small town on an island in Alaska we don't even have any fast food restaurants here we are very isolated no Walmart, home depot, etc. The closest town is a 4 hour ferry boat ride, 6 if I take my own. I loved their habitats for my other critters and was going to make my whole collection have a Zen habitat but after dealing with this I am defiantly reconsidering just going with Custom Cages.

[@tristan2224]

I like it better when you talk through it

[@kalebbreeden7482]

I’ve been interested in getting one of these enclosures but I have question. How does the temperature and humidity hold up in these? What are you running for heat?

[@reptiliangarden]

Fantastic! The pvc enclosures can hold up to 100% humidity and they allow the use of heat pads. They also come with a humidity shield to lock in moisture!

[@kalebbreeden7482]

So do you only use a heat pad under the hot hide? I’m sorry I’m new to owning a ball Python and want to switch over to bio active.

[@vonicenhernandez7060]

Looks great and yeah drylock is better than silicone in some ways

[@vonicenhernandez7060]

Great build btw

[@reptiliangarden]

Thank you! I agree! It was so much easier 😅

[@Magicspells1]

Hey so what kind of lighting is in there

[@koiffeedraws2431]

Hi! So sorry to ask here, but I'm preparing my terrarium for my first ball python and I ordered the exact same heat mat you're using; I was wondering, is one of these enough for a 150cmx50cm enclosure, or should I use two heat mats (or a heat mat and another heat source from above?). I've tried googling but it's so specific I'm not exactly finding the answer I'm looking for. Thank you sm in advance! Your videos have helped me do the research so much over the last few months, I get so excited when you upload something new

[@reptiliangarden]

So long as the heat pad is big enough on one side of the enclosure to support your animals entire body, you should be fine! It doesn’t have to be an exact measurement

[@koiffeedraws2431]

@@reptiliangarden Oh, thank you so much! And are you fine through the winter using only the heat mat? Thank you so much for the reply, it helped a lot 🖤 I had been so worried about the size 😅

[@sueparks6590]

Oh magical glowing ball will there be a cheese boi in my future? - Casper the friendly snek.

[@MtdpalmJ]

who chose the music? Fits very well

[@reptiliangarden]

I did! Thank you!

[@kiritokaguya9180]

One heatmat is enough for your enclosure and what do you do for the light?

[@DazedMatuszewski]

Question, been having trouble maintaining my ambient temps in my ball python enclosure with stuff going into fall time, any tips on how i can keep the temps on for the enclosure? i do have an UTH for the hot spot just more concerned about the temp of the rest of the enclosure

[@saveriopanaccione996]

Awesome! Looks like a Tim Burton jungle

[@loganuselmann1853]

when buying from Zen Habitats how do you get them to come with the substrate shield/guard?? is it something extra?

[@loganuselmann1853]

nvm i think i figured it out?

[@reptiliangarden]

They all automatically come with the substrate shield!

[@loganuselmann1853]

[@kymberlysteiger8125]

OMG I have to get that enclosure for my Ball Python! Which is a twin to yours but mines a girl 👧 She was born on June 12th and I’ve had her since September 12th. The breeder said “Do not put branches/wood in her enclosure!” But Adam from Wickens said I should and she is on her branches every single night! Does your Lucy have Spider in him? Mine does and unfortunately she has the wobble 😢😢😢 I thought since there are so many other genes; GHI, Mojave, Lesser, Spider that the wobble wouldn’t show up. But when she eats, she tips over backwards, completely! It takes her awhile to right herself. If I try and help flip her over, she spits out her food and won’t eat till the following week! Do you have any suggestions for me? I was going to breed her, but not now! Which sucks because she cost a fortune! But she comes first! Any help would be really appreciated! As soon as I get my stimulus check I’m going to get her that enclosure! I’m hoping it’s enough I can get one for my Bearded Dragon too! He’s in a 55 gallon long that I made into two tiers so he has a lot of space but I would totally love to have a rack of the Zen habitats! BTW... your boy is stunning!

[@JosueFortino]

Is the foam pretty much permanent? In other words if in the future you wanted to change the background, could you scrape it all off or would you have to order another panel from Zen Habitats?

[@quinnplaysguitar]

you *can* scrape it off but if you want it to be permanent it can be. you can use the same background for the entirety of the snakes life because they don’t have claws and such to scuff up the material
