Baby Brown African House Snake Overview
The brown African house snake is a non venemous colubrid snake that grows to a manageable size of 36 inches. Our captive born baby brown african house snakes are feeding on a diet of frozen-thawed and live pinky mice.
These beautiful brown snakes have a mild temper and are also available in other colors. We might also want to check out our black Afirican house snake which is jet black.
Recommended Habitat
African house snakes thrive in a low humidity environment with hard decorations to climb over and bask on. When selecting a bedding we try to ensure that the pieces are unlikely to increase the enclosures humidity.
In store we normally use a coarse beech woodchip as it is clean, cheap, easy to spot clean and dust free.
If you prefer a more natural looking decoration a soil / clay mix would be perfect. If you plan to keep the snake in a bio-active enclosure a nutrient rich soil and clay mix with some sand for aeration would be perfect.
Baby Brown African House Snake love the warmth coming from their basking lamp but they also appreciate secondary belly heat which will radiate from warm objects. Natural rocks like slate are perfect for this, so are heavy artificial ornaments.
These decorations can be placed under and around the basking area and should warm up nicely. If the lamp is too low there is a chance that natural rocks could get too hot so you are best to check the surface temperature to avoid burns.
As discussed in the lighting section there will be times when the snake does not want any UV and needs a bit of shade. To ensure that the snake can get away from the light whenever necessary we advise spreading full and partial cover throughout the enclosure. Follow our guide for the best habitat for your reptile
Examples of full cover decorations would be caves, flat cork pieces or any other ornament that provides a shady spot to rest. Examples of partial cover would include tall plants, trailing plants.

Our baby girl is so beautiful. She was alive and healthy. We were gonna have her shipped to our house, butBuyreptileonline .com cares a lot about there reptiles. They texted me asking if I could pick our baby girl up from a fed ex location because it would be to cold for her to get shipped to our house. We appreciated that so much. Thank youBuyreptileonline .comfor our baby girl.
