Looking for the BEST substrate and enclosure setup for your ball python or boa constrictor? This is the video every reptile owner needs to watch before buying another bag of cypress mulch or building another boring glass tank setup.
In this video, I break down my new and improved grow tent enclosure build, featuring a layered substrate mix that locks in humidity, prevents scale rot, and keeps your snake stress-free. Whether you’re housing a baby ball python or a full-grown boa constrictor, this guide shows you exactly how to mimic nature—without spending thousands on overpriced enclosures.
You’ll learn:
The best substrate combo for high humidity & low maintenance
Why coco fiber, Reptibark, and coco husk beat cypress mulch every time
How to automate lighting & heat to mimic sunrise and sunset
Why this grow tent setup is better than glass tanks or PVC for many keepers
How this enclosure saved my rescue ball python, Pretzel (real story)
This isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about creating an environment where your snake thrives. I also highlight products I personally use, all linked below in my Amazon storefront so you can replicate the setup today.
