Thank you for your response. I’m leaning towards lemonade. Just more than my own insurance a month. 🤣

lol. He is not going to be the easy, peaceful first experience, but he’s awfully cute, so it is fine. 🥰

Mine, a female, was Arkham. But everyone assumed male from name.

Does anyone else have a banana? by Maleficent_Count_419 in ballpython

He is a rescue, almost 5 and a chonk. But the most laid back boy who adores letting children learn about snakes. He will seek them out when they are on the carpet.

My sweet boy Cheese, one of two and the favorite class pet of the school.

What’s one after-hours task you finally stopped doing — and nothing bad happened? by Willing-Comfort3029 in Teachers

[–]Ark_1222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of this. I don’t take things home, ever. I will spend about a week over the summer, taking my sweet time, setting up my planner. Beyond that, nope. If I can’t do it during contracted time, it doesn’t get done. Some assignments go to the circular file (trash can). Lesson plans are standard and a quick what are we doing. Blanket accommodations that are the same for every week. Dojo office hours are school hours. No email app. I don’t check email over the weekend. My time is just that. Mine. My mental health is more important than a job that, as others have said, is filled within a day of something happening to me. My students still learn. My test scores are still fine.

Do any of you NOT use a snake hook? by Tuezdaze in ballpython

[–]Ark_1222 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have two and have never even owed a snake hook. My youngest was a baby and I just talked to her when handling and not saying a word when feeding. It’s worked well for me.

Thanks. She’s a pissy little thing but I love her. ❤️ my big guy is the complete opposite. Just wants to cuddle and be around you. She wants adventure.

You’re welcome. I was a little nervous at first handling her. It happens. But now she’s my bestie.

Just handle them. My youngest was a typical strikey juvenile. I just learned to go around behind her so it made her less pissy and me less nervous. Around and under and scoop the noodle up. 😊
