if they are under 3ft then a 2ft long viv if over 3ft a 3ft long viv, this is what i personally do

so for each royal you will need

correct size viv
heat source, either ir or ceramic bulb
bulb holder, ceramic holder if using ceramic bulb
thermostat, pulse or dimmer stat for ceramic bulb, dimmer stat for ir
bulb guard, this is a must to stop the snake burning themselves on the bulb
2 hides for each viv
water bowl
substrate
fake leaves
a log for the snake to rub against while shedding
2 digital thermometers, one for hot end one for cold end

don't think i have missed anything. personally i use ceramic bulbs for heating but ir is just as good

Hi, David, this is the thread I always post up in response to queries re new setups - it's got loads of info.

http://www.theroyalpython.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5183

Keeping them together - well, there's always a debate about that, and I do have an open mind about cohabbing, but personally wouldn't with royals, but just my opinion. It's not writ in stone.

And welcome to the forum.

First question - are these "pythons" royal pythons?

For each:
you will need a rub
Thermostat (mat stat)
Heat mat (low wattage)
2 hides
water bowl
Thermometer
some plastic/silk foliage

Thats for a basic setup

If you already have the, how are they housed now?
