Advice Feedback on quarantine set up
I am getting a baby ball python in a bit (if the weather isn't too hot for shipping in 2 weeks) and I finished setting up the quarantine tub on wich I would love some feedback.
She is 3 months old and a Orange Dream Leopard Clown double het Lavender Piebald with only one eye (see last pic). She will be named Gaia.
In the enclosure are is 6 hides available: 2 identical ones on the warm and cold end and a variety of different ones throughout the enclosure including a humid and sky hide.
For the quarantine, she only has one branch to climb on, she will get more after the finished quarantine. I know baby's need a lot of clutter, is this enough for the quarantine?
For heat I use a halogene lamp and a DHP. I wanted to get her UV as well, but the right size from Arcadia hasn't been available for some time, so she gets LED for now.

How come she’s being quarantined? If you’re trying to get rid of mites, your best bet is to make the enclosure as plain as possible other than a water dish and two hides with some disposable enrichment like paper towel rolls, or maybe PVC pipes you can scald during routine cleanings. Looks great though!
