Eco Tech Hatchling Snake Starter Kit 31 x 21 x 18cm

The Eco Tech Hatchling Snake Starter Kit 31 x 21 x 18cm brings together the main items needed to establish a compact enclosure for a hatchling or small juvenile snake.

The enclosure has a secure sliding top and two blanked-out sides to reduce visual exposure and create a more sheltered setup. A heat mat is included and should be positioned at one end of the enclosure so the snake can move between warmer and cooler areas.

Designed for Young Snakes

Hatchlings generally benefit from a setup that offers cover and secure retreat areas. The blanked sides and included resin hide help create a less exposed environment, while the compact size makes this kit practical for appropriately sized young snakes.

Heat Mat Placement

Place the heat mat at one end of the enclosure rather than heating the entire floor. This helps create a temperature gradient so the snake can choose a warmer or cooler area as required. Temperatures should be checked regularly, and using a suitable thermostat is the preferred way to regulate the heat source.

Suitable For

• Children's Pythons
• Stimson's Pythons
• Spotted Pythons
• Other appropriately sized hatchling Australian pythons

This enclosure is intended for hatchling and small juvenile snakes. A larger enclosure will be required as the animal grows.
