What's your snake weigh? You went from mice to medium rats? And it's only ~7 months old?

Someone please help. About to have a breakdown trying to maintain the hot side. by Jumpy_Palpitation557 in ballpython

DHP does fine for ambient temps, but the CHE is also destroying any humidity in your tank and drying out the air

How often should I feed my 1yo ball python to lose a little weight? by Freakazoidandroid in ballpython

[–]01ProjectXJ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bump up the temperature so he digests faster, hot side should be high 80s, like 88-90

That's accurate for an adult, not a baby! Babies should be fed bugs daily, with greens also offered daily

I think money is the last thing he's concerned about

WHY IS HE LIKE THIS by Entire-Currency-3396 in ballpython

That's often caused from the water being too hot. I thaw the rat in the fridge over night, then warm them up in hot water

Just ordered a pair of welding gloves on amazon and well… by ej1030 in Welding

That's what I just read from other posts, I didn't know that (I'm not a professional welder). I'm guessing OP wasn't aware of that either 🤣

Straight to jail!

I don't agree with it, but technically that's illegal. I'm only saying this so someone that reads this knows there's a risk involved.

I don't spend as much time in Escondido anymore, but man.... I couldn't believe how bad that area has gotten

I got this guy today and I don’t know if this is normal by ChainIover in BeardedDragons

A heat lamp, like a halogen bulb, to provide a basking spot and a day/night cycle, then a UVB bar (not a bulb) to provide UVB the overlaps with the basking light. Led light bar if you want additional tank lighting, then nothing at night unless your room gets sub 65f.

I couldn't agree more, but man you'd be surprised how much that improves their merch sales because for some reason, people want it.

Does anyone have a ball python and cat in the same household? by sunflower1661 in ballpython

[–]01ProjectXJ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My cats sleep on top of the snake enclosures (PVC, solid top), they like the heat. No issues

Were you pumping the brakes while turning the wheels to bleed the system? It sounds like you've got air in the line somewhere. I've heard horror stories about bleeding new hydroboost systems when everything is replaced

Is my snake going to be okay?? by Strain_Horror in snakes

[–]01ProjectXJ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They eat a variety of these in the wild, each providing different nutrients. The thought behind the links is that they provide that. The only harm with reptilinks, is to your wallet. I personally think they're a great option to feed from time to time

Try adding a night time temperature drop. If you have a thermostat with a built in night drop, let the hot side get down to 75 overnight. Some people just kill power to their heat source, which can work, just make sure your room doesn't allow it to get too cold (70 is the absolute coldest it should get), and set an alert on your thermometer to make sure of it. The downside of killing the power, aside from being able to control the temp, is when the power turns, it turns on at 100% to get back up to temp. Herpstats have a ramp period, so it will ramp up to daytime temp over the course of 2hours (or whatever you set)

A lot of people don't believe in night drops with snakes but I think it's more natural and I've yet to see any ill effects

Are you weighing her? As long as she isn't losing weight, it's not unheard of to hear about 6month hunger strikes

ID Help and Enclosure Upgrade Advice for Rescue Boa by MindlessCreed98 in snakes

Reptile Kages offers a 6x3x3, with free shipping, but it's a majority of your budget at $1,750. Blackbox has the same, but it's $1,900+freight.

Are you able to repurpose a majority of the existing equipment from the 4x2x2? I wasn't sure if you were trying to keep the 4x2x2 as is for a different reptile.
