How to Care for Your New Pet Snake

Once you’ve selected your new pet snake, it’s important to properly care for it to keep it healthy and happy. Snakes can live over 20 years, so they are a long-term commitment. Follow these guidelines to give your snake the best life possible:

Housing

House your snake in an enclosure specifically designed for reptiles, such as a glass aquarium or PVC cage. The enclosure should be at least as long as your snake, with secure mesh or screen lids. Include multiple hiding spots, climbing areas, and other enrichment. Spot-clean the enclosure regularly and change about 25% of the bedding every week.

Heating and Lighting

Snakes are coldblooded and require an external heat source. Install an under-tank heating pad to maintain a temperature of 75-88 F depending on your snake’s needs. Include an overhead UVB light on a timer for 12-14 hours per day. The UVB light helps your snake synthesize vitamin D.

Humidity and Water

Maintain a humidity level of 50-60% using a hygrometer and reptile misting system. Provide a shallow water bowl for drinking that is changed daily. Some snakes enjoy soaking, so you can also provide a larger bowl.

Food and Feeding

Feed juvenile snakes every 5-7 days, while adults eat every 7-14 days. Offer appropriately sized frozen/thawed rodents. Never feed live prey. Handle your snake as little as possible after eating to allow for proper digestion.

Health

Take your snake for regular vet checkups to monitor health. Look for any signs of illness like lethargy, regurgitation, mites, respiratory infections or mouth rot. Quarantine any new snakes for at least 90 days before introducing into your collection. Practice good hygiene like washing hands before and after handling to prevent disease transmission.

Providing the essential elements of housing, heating, lighting, humidity and nutrition will help ensure your pet snake leads a long, healthy and rewarding life. With regular interaction and enrichment, your snake can become quite tame and socialized to its owners.
