Hi again!

Ok, so just bought a 3ft viv and some questions popped up I thought I should ask.

1) Will Dimika need a partition, she's about 2ft/1.75 ft

2) Will I need to buy a new heat-mat? The one she's got is about 7" x 4"

3) If I buy a new heat-mat, will it have to be habistat as I've got a habistat thermostat for it, and I heard they work best with the heat-mat they're made for?

4)Will Dimika need a medium or large water bowl? She has small/x small at the moment and it is WAY too small for her.

Thanks, Lil xx

The XL ones are pretty massive so i would just get the large for now and get the XL when shes bigger.

That's the make I was looking at Sta~ple I think I'll go to the reptile shop and have a look myself to compare sizes.

Get a bigger water bowl definitely, I would get the size that will let a an adult corn be able to bathe in it.

There's an large and x-large water dish that exoterra sell but I have no idea how big they are. If anyone knows please do tell.

Yer there bigger than the smalls but not by all that much. Not sure how big the larges are though.

Oke x) Thanks a lot Danny Yeah I thought the medium one looked a bit on the small size...

The thermostat will be fine with any heatmat, that said the habistat ones are pretty good, there what i have.

You will need a bigger heatmat, 11x11 i would have thought.

Wether you partition is upto you, you know your snake and wether it is likely to get stressed in a larger viv. I know if it was me moving mine up now i would put Reggie straight into the 3 footer, but would partition it for casper as she can get a little stressed.

Candy is only tiny at the minute but if she was casper or Reggies size i would probably just put her straight into a 3 footer.

I would also get a bigger water bowl, Maybe get the large one, i have the medium in my fains and it isn't all that big. Reggie can just about curl up init.

NOTE: I'm not rushing into anything and it'll take me a while to get this set-up so she won't be moving in too soon.
