    My New Ribbon Snake! (Unidentified)

    Sorry for the bad photos I didn't realise until after I put it in it's new enclosure to chill out that I was shooting on the wrong mode On the bright side I think I love it already, I put it in it's new enclosure and it hasn't stopped moving! It's basking under the UV Any guesses to species appreciated, the flash washed out the two dots on the head on the close up shot so bare that in mind.

    It's enclosure. Planted with a bioactive substrate and UV lighting. He's going to get lost in it! 3ft x 18 inches x 18 inches.

    Wasn't in there for this photo it ruins the naturalistic look Do you recommend a large water dish for these snakes or do they do fine with a smaller bowl?

    I would go with a large one. Ribbons can be very aquatic.

    Probably best to use a larger one even if they don't use it to soak it will amp the humidity of the enclosure! I love that setup and that ribbon looks sweet! Looking forward to these updates!
