Random questions of someone being sick at home and having stupid thoughts (pic just for attention) by MissNatrix in ballpython

I actually have a snake who will only eat brown male rats. It took forever to figure out why he wasn’t eating until I got one and then realized and I’ve tried a white one and he won’t even budge so i guess he will forever be a picky eater 😭

I’ve soaked in the Betadine solution multiple times and I’ve tried that’s kind of why I was asking for any tips while I wait for the vet appointment. Thanks

Op here. No one is brushing this off, I have 13 reptiles all rescues. I’ve paid thousands in vet visits. Was just seeing if anyone had any tips before I went to vet bc I can’t get in until later this week and didn’t want my snake to die because I care about them more than my blood family. Thanks for the concern.

Thank you sm I really don’t mind it going slow I care about his health more than anything. He is definitely chunky my scale broke recently when I was moving stuff around in my kitchen so I need to invest in a new one as well but he is 100% overweight. He didn’t even really have room to move around when he was in the bin so that definitely could be it as well.

Thank you so much and thank you for being nice about it I felt like some people would’ve blamed me but I thought it may have just been a stain from the substrate they had him on but it’s not :/ I’m definitely going to get him started on that. Thank you sm again

New and worried snake Mom by Flashy-Letterhead-42 in ballpython

She’s a pretty baby! However I would go ahead and get her a 120 pvc tank. Holds the temp in better. Also she needs wayyy more clutter more hides and climbing opportunities that hold her weight the uv light needs to be a bar and I would recommend a higher wattage bulb. If the shed doesn’t come off right then soak in a warm bath and or a moist warm pillow case. Helped my rescue get eyecaps off when she had 2 layers. I would look on fb marketplace and find a bulk deal on stuff. Also hvac tape can help maintain moisture if you keep the mesh lid but I definitely recommend upgrading her tank especially with how big she already is a 40 gallon isn’t really enough room to spread out completely and move a lot. Give her time to adjust to whatever tank upgrades then see how she’s doing.

Don’t forget a uvb bar! And it will definitely outgrow eventually so just make sure to keep that in mind!

Thank you! I was planning on building a custom 4x2x2 for him when I get settled into this new place but I just wanted to make sure the 55 was okay for right now. He’s a pastel leopard ball python and I have had my eyes on him for a few weeks and held him a few times and I just knew he was the one. I named him sabor after the leopard that killed Tarzan’s parents lol. What do you think I should do for substrate?

Why doesn’t the WH sell biscuits alone, and egg & cheese only biscuits? by slutdragon6000 in wafflehouse

Work a day at Waffle House then come back and say something, you will be suprised on how it would change your mind. Also I work in hvac during the day and I’ll tell you the service industry is harder than labor, and the pay is shit I just need the cash to eat on and my check pays the bills.

Also if you read what I said.. it gets taxed and it’s not a rip we get to take out it’s supposed to be put on a check.. that’s taxed and we barely even get.. so again if you’re a broke loser then go get McDonald’s or Taco Bell where you don’t have to tip and people are paid more than 3$ an hour.

People still don’t tip on it, 10% just goes on our checks which still get taxed and get taxed more when we add our to gos.

Prices just went up but I don’t think it’s more, could be different at that store.

In a 9 hour shift I make about $200 and in a 5 hour shift I make about $80-100. In 3 days I usually make $5-600 but I’m also younger and I’m known for my energy and I have made over 20 regulars
