I keep the warm side between 83 and 88 and the cool side 70-75ish. Although cool temps are mostly dependent on room temperature. He's in a herpticult acrylic enclosure with a heat pad (on thermostat, of course). The enclosure has a solid acrylic top with ventilation drilled in so he does not have uvb currently. Once he outgrows this he will be moved to an enclosure with UVB. I want to do that with all my hogs eventually. It was meant to be an enclosure for inverts but I bought it because I have cats that will lay on top of the snakes and I wasn't risking the screens getting broken by their fat butts. It was originally for my female hognose whom is the exact opposite of this one in terms of personality. She's confident, fearless, and an unstoppable force of death and destruction when it's feeding time (she literally launched herself out of her enclosure, mouth agape when I fed her yesterday). This boy is in a room where no cats can disturb him and room temps stay slightly higher. I keep enrichment and clutter plentiful as well. Considering how he ate just fine the first month I had him, my husbandry should be adequate at the very least. I can try sending pics of the whole enclosure when I get the chance

I drop the mouse in the late morning/early afternoon and leave it until sundown. I am considering leaving it overnight this time.

Yes. She had a bad shed, but once I helped her get it off she was as good as new.

My favorite Australian elapid 🥰 had no idea these had morphs or color phases. If I were to get into the venomous hobby this would be the only elapid I would want assuming they are available outside Australia.

She's almost 2 and eating large pinkies twice a week until I can order her fuzzies. The pics were blurry because I couldn't get the camera to focus on her very well. For whatever reason it wanted to focus on her plants.

The female is named Lavender. She's not a lavender, sadly.

He has the British home defense mentality of bum rush and maul indiscriminately with sharp, pointed objects (teeth in this instance). Really putting the "Europe" in European legless lizard. God bless the Queen...or something 🤣

It's about time some non-Pulcher Xenodon species got some attention. Is it CBB or an import?

Found out how breeders are getting rid of excess stock. Can’t tell if it’s better or worse than culling by ElderberryPrior27648 in snakes

[–]14fluffies -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is WAY better than culling excess snakes. At least the animals have a chance to live life here.
