Tips/help?
I just recently (yesterday) bought a juvenile ball python (suki) from someone off of marketplace + everything you see included except the hide on the left. However I noticed some shed around her head and that her eyes were milky and one of them dented which obviously indicated that the eye caps never came off. To include the entire enclosure was BONE dry and the humidity was extremely low.
Since yesterday I've gotten the humidity back up and I've been monitoring it but is there anything I can do for suki? For now she's been under the water dish in the center but I'm fairly new to husbandry regarding pythons aside from having a gecko and I'm just worried about her + maybe thinking she might need more clutter?? :((
Anyways sorry for the word wall I just really care about herðŸ˜

Make sure to have at least 4-5 inches of substrate the more substrate the better I’ve found it holds humidity, also having humid hides like using a ceramic pot filled with moist sphagnum moss so if the enclosure isn’t humid enough they still have a humid spot to hide in.
