Ouroborus cataphractus

Traceable. The figures above appear in the page we cite, which we opened on 10 Aug 2026. That means you can check them, not that we have confirmed they are right. responsibleherpetoculture.foundation

Drag the sun. The sheet states a night temperature, so the rail follows it.

Day: a real gradient, 38°C warm against 28°C cool, so the animal chooses. Night: 24°C.

Why

Same scale on every sheet here, so two species compare by eye.

Drawn from the stated numbers. Only what the sheet states is drawn inside.

Why

The rectangle carries the exact width-to-height ratio of the figures above it, and the ruler under it places that width on the 0–250 cm scale every sheet here shares, so two species still compare at a glance. Nothing is added that the sheet does not name: a lamp drawn on a sheet that never mentions one would be invented equipment. What the sheet leaves out is listed rather than left blank, because an empty tank reads as « none needed ».

อาหาร

Feeding rhythm

every 1 dAs the sheet states
28Meals in 28 days

Twenty-eight days, one row. Each band is a meal window.

Why

The windows widen as they go because the interval is a range: four meals after a 10–14 day cycle land anywhere between day 40 and day 56.

The sheet statesInsects are given 1 time in 3 days at the rate of 5-7 pieces per individual. Salad is offered every other day. Food is offered daily if we talk about babies.

คำถามที่พบบ่อย EN

Why is it so expensive?

It is protected and breeds very slowly, with one or two babies a year, and only documented captive-bred stock can be sold legally.

Can I keep a group?

Yes, and they do better that way. In the wild they live in family groups inside rock cracks.

Does it bite?

Almost never. Its defence is to bite its own tail and roll into an armoured ball.

What does it eat?

Insects, especially termites in the wild. Here we feed crickets and roaches with supplement.

This sheet states 5 of 7 of the fields this product runs on. What is missing turns something off: day/night engine and awake count on the globe, the diet section. We show the gap rather than fill it with a plausible number.

UVB is measured but does not count: it is absent from 421 of 678 sheets, and on most of them that is not a gap, since a nocturnal snake's sheet has no reason to state a UV index. Counting it would call the library incomplete without cause.
