in part 1 of the tutorial, we discussed the natural habitat of royal pythons and how to create a suitable vivarium setup for them. in part 2, we will delve into additional aspects of the vivarium setup that are important for the well-being and health of the royal python.
1. **temperature**: royal pythons are native to west africa where temperatures are warm. it is crucial to provide a temperature gradient within the vivarium to allow the snake to thermoregulate. the ambient temperature in the vivarium should be around 80-85°f (26-29°c) with a basking spot of 88-92°f (31-33°c). use a thermostat to regulate the temperature and prevent overheating.
2. **humidity**: maintaining proper humidity levels is essential for the health of your royal python. the humidity in the vivarium should be around 50-60%. you can achieve this by misting the enclosure regularly and providing a humidity hide filled with damp sphagnum moss.
3. **substrate**: choose a suitable substrate that mimics the royal python's natural environment. aspen shavings, cypress mulch, or coconut husk bedding are good options. avoid substrates that can cause impaction, such as sand or small particles.
4. **hideouts**: royal pythons are shy, nocturnal creatures that require multiple hideouts in their vivarium. provide at least two hideouts, one on the warm side and one on the cool side of the enclosure. these hideouts should be snug-fitting to make the snake feel secure.
5. **lighting**: royal pythons are crepuscular animals and do not require uvb lighting. however, providing a low-level uvb light can be beneficial for their overall health. a day-night light cycle of 12 hours light and 12 hours darkness is ideal.
now, let's see an example of python code that simulates the temperature control system in a royal python vivarium:
in this code example, we define a `thermostat` class with a method to regulate the temperature based on the current temperature and the target temperature. you can customize this c ...
