That light has to come out!!!!

If she lies on the light when it is on then she is gonna fry to a crisp.

The rest looks nice. Try getting her onto dead food if she feeds that well.

I never use the lamp because when i swich the room's light on i can see into the cage and when i use the lamp i allways make sure were she is and the light is never left on , And its an energy saver so it takes a long time to get warm.

Welcome to the site & Congrads on your first snake!! Setup looks good, if you have not already done so google brown house snakes, there is tones of info on them. If its a energy saver you can keep it on all the time(preferably off at night) Enjoy the joys of keeping your first snake.

Stunning snake jka, when did you get the second one (female) :?:
I like candlelight dinners, romantic walks on the beach and poking dead things with a stick.
