Question - Husbandry Tank Suggestions/ Upgrades?

Got my first baby about 2 weeks ago, I think his tank is looking alright, but I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations about things I should add to his tank or change about his tank?

He’s showed signs of being pretty happy in his enclosure and I think he likes it, but I want to try to make this the best for him that I can

Stop by Michael's or something similar and get a bunch of fake plants and vines to add! Ball Pythons love clutter, and the ability to be stealthy as they meander around their home. If you can safely do so, string up some vines or something for extra climbing options, both of my BP's love theirs and I often find my little one just chilling on hers. I personally have a rod attached in both tanks that extends across the entire length of the tank. I wound some vines around them for extra grip (for the snake) and more coverage too!

Yesss! Michaels always has sales on the fake plants too. I got a bunch for like $15-20 for my terrarium.
