hey guys i got back from the expo last night, bought a headache ! i told myself not to but i did it anyway. I purchased a CB female ball python she is around 11" a generally good looking girl. She cost me 30 dollars but there luxurious mansion cost me an arm, a leg and my sanity. I live in NYC considering i kinda broke a law smuggling a Boidae into the city 
im hoping it will be worth it. I brought the girl with the supplies all in one day.. thinking i could handle setting everything up and correcting the temps but i was kinda wrong. Im currently running the viv on a ESU temp controller that is controlling a foot of flexwatt. The Hot spot temp are pretty consistant and correct (after all this is a 25 dollar unit) so im doing all i can. No one at the expo sold anything worth buy so i bought the best thing they had. Im having an extremely hard time controlling the cooler spot the temps seem to range from 73-75 wayyyy too low. So i got up this morning and ended up ordering another ESU controller and another UTH. I have no other choice.. im treating this girl as if she is plated with gold lol. I tried to go the cheaper route but i guess that didnt work out. She seems to be spending all her time in the warmer hide de-stressing, after yesterdays adventure. I upped the temp so its around 95 to avoid RI hopefully everything will work out. Im prob going to end up moving her into a smaller viv hight wise, trying to raise the ambient temp. So we will c how thats going to work out. I would deff love to c some feedback and i was just wondering if anyone else was there yesterday and came home with any buys.
