Rubs are better than fauns if you ask me
Cheers Danny |

What i have always found with a faun is it brittle if you dont pick it up right it can crack and then its no good for anything then it might just be me though
I use to keep locust in mine for breeding and when i used to clean them out i would pick them up with one hand and where it is vented they crack there
Rubs are so much stronger |

Alot of people use these
www.reallyusefulproducts.co.uk/uk/html/onlineshop/rub/b09_0litre.php
All of mine are in these 9L Rubs they are a good size for a hatchling and think you can buy Really useful boxes (R.U.B) anywhere B&Q or staples |

A large water bowl will increase the humidity, you only want 50-50% really.
You definitely need a thermostat, yes. If you're using a heatmat a Matstat will do, they're about £20. |

I was told the water bowl should be the same size as the snake so he can get in and soak if he wanted to
And yes definitely need a thermostat |

A 9L is fine for a hatchling, so 12L should be fine. |
