Amina the Ball python is proving that when provided with space, enrichment and proper lighting, they will most certainly bask under bright lights, just as they do in the wild.
As we say... reptiles do need time to adjust to any major change in their habitat, and 6 months is fairly common in our experience. Be patient when moving your pet reptiles into new surroundings and you will be rewarded, when they are ready to reward you back 🐍😄

In the third year, Bob Bledsoe from Green Room Pythons competed for the first time and for his special weapon, Bob brought a custom designed, 3D printed model of an old building ruins for a Gargoyle gecko.
The results were impressive and we then saw a very close battle between Bob's design and Tyler Rugge's design but in the end, Tyler was able to get just 151 more votes to take 3rd place (2,815 vs 2,966 votes). Because of this neck and neck finish, Bob was then invited back to be the 10th contestant in this year's Grand finals.

Did Ball Python Breeding Just Change Forever!
It sure did and in this last clip, Summer from Kinova shows a simple method to easily transition a new Ball python from a tub, into its large forever home. This blows away the myth that you need multiple enclosures as they grow when really, providing a large, properly setup enclosure the first time will save you time and money 😁

To some, progress may look slow but behind the scenes, there is really quite a lot going on.
While some parts of Europe are being forced to change breeding standards, don’t be fooled by siding with the Anti-pet groups as this tactic is not all that it seems. Remember, they cry for welfare but have stated that they don’t want us to keep reptiles (or any pets) at all.
Some of these extreme agendas will regurgitate debunked claims that 75% of all reptiles die within their first year but this propaganda has been destroyed. Regardless, they still use it to try and convince lawmakers that what we do is cruel, and should be banned outright.
Our fight is not over, it is just beginning and we must remember who the actual enemy is while not destroying ourselves through infighting and lack of understanding. As an industry, we must understand that there are many aspects that we may not agree with. However, in many cases, if we were to remove one of these components, it may have dire, unintended consequences. While some reptile keepers may wish that breeders simply stop breeding reptiles, remove this component and the whole industry would crumble.
We at Custom Reptile Habitats applaud the many progressive breeders that are pushing this crucial area forward. We have come a long way, and there is much more that we can do, but it is far better that we move forward as we are now doing vs being forced to rapidly change. We believe that consumer trends have, and will continue to take us to where we need to be, not the agenda driven Anti-pet groups.
Do you have a favorite reptile breeder? If so, please applaud them in the comments below 👏

Fact: Ball Pythons can and will climb when given the opportunity. Despite voluminous evidence that both wild and captive Ball Pythons can and will climb when given the opportunity, there are still many keepers that will try to argue that they won't. While this myth has been destroyed by the various studies over the years and of course, a million or so pet keepers around the world, we wanted to illustrate for our customers and followers that even a full grown, 19 year old, retired breeder Ball Python will climb and explore every inch of her habitat, when provided with space and enrichment.When we picked up Amina three months ago, she had lived her entire life in a typical 13 or so gallon breeder tub setup, but within 24 hours she began to explore her new 930 gallon habitat. From our many years of experience, we know that juvenile Ball Pythons that are kept as pets will explore and climb, but what about a full grown adult that has only known a small tub as her world? Needless to say, she too quickly began to explore and climb, and has adjusted very well to her new setup.Tubs were created to provide breeders with a very efficient, simplistic way to house and breed large numbers of reptiles. They have a purpose, and this is after all how most reptiles today are bred; however, tubs are not, and never were created to be forever homes for reptiles. As we say... Give your pet ball python room to move, and things to climb on. They will utilize all of it!See our products for Ball Pythons here - https://customreptilehabitats.com/collections/recommended-products-ball-pythons #ballpython #ballpythons #ballpythonbreeder #ballpythonmorph #ballpythonmorphs #pythonregius #royalpython #royalpythonsofinstagram #snakesofinstagram #reptile #reptiles #reptilebreeder #breaktherackcycle #reptilekeeper #reptilelover #reptilepets #snakebreeders #myreptilebreeder #myballpythonwontstayinitshide
Introducing Amina
Introducing: Amina 👑
This large (5ft 8") Ball Python is a recently retired breeder and we thought that it would be fitting to upgrade this big girl into our 930 gallon, naturalistic showroom display. Amina was a Nigerian Queen in the 16th century, and the perfect name for this Royal Python.
