Hey guys I am getting my first ball python tomorrow I am soo excited! It is a hatchling just a baby and I was planning on putting him in a 10 gallon for now. Is a 10 gallon big enough for a hatchling? I don't wana cramp him and stress him out. But for now what would be my best bet for heating/ (10 gallon). I was gona use a UTH. Would that provide enough heat? 90 degrees on the warm side. I spent an hour+ today talking to the manager of my local reptile breader shop and he said that I would need a heat light and a UTH even in a 10 gallon... hmm.. Please adive is welcome :)
