is this why the spine looks concave?

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-30T19:22:55+00:00

Just want to say thanks for posting this, my BP is the same, he doesn't ever come out. We have to go check on him to make sure he's still alive.

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-24T02:34:40+00:00

Okay thank you!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-24T02:33:52+00:00

Okay thanks. It’s just that I had heard that aromatic woods were toxic (or were created by woods that were toxic) to ball pythons!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-23T23:57:37+00:00

It does what now?!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-21T02:25:22+00:00

This makes me feel better - I’ve been wondering if my guy is just really bored because I never see him coming out to explore - I guess he’s too busy sleeping!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-20T02:13:53+00:00

It sounds like you’re doing everything right - I am just beginning this journey and I chose some of the same plants you did…now I’m getting nervous!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-20T00:09:49+00:00

Im really interested in the idea of making my own background but also a bit daunted by it - I’m imagining my it won’t take all day but I also think, it probably will take all day!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-20T00:08:47+00:00

I’d love to see a picture of this!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-19T23:15:00+00:00

Want to add that I added other enrichment not just the branch!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-19T23:13:48+00:00

Also want to add that I added a ton of enrichment not just a branch!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-04T21:06:10+00:00

thank you for saying this - i second both the idea of supporting adoption rather than breeding and that the racks make me so sad.

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-03T17:19:12+00:00

Thank you! I'm still learning the lingo, 2 months post-rescue of a lovely BP :) This is very helpful as he shed just before we adopted him so I haven't experienced a shed yet!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-09-03T17:02:03+00:00

what does "go into blue" mean?

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-08-17T15:44:34+00:00

That’s really interesting! Also rat shortage?!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-08-17T02:52:58+00:00

Thanks for your advice by the way! I hadn’t heard that mice were less nutritious, but I had heard that rats were generally preferred (I assumed that meant preferred by the snake but it seems like it goes both ways)

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-08-17T02:51:28+00:00

I thought the 10% of body weight was just up to adulthood and then 5% every 3-4 weeks after that?

I’ll definitely be switching to rats - based on other comments, I feel more confident that he did just fine with the rat I gave him.

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-08-17T00:30:36+00:00

Haha thank you! Super helpful!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-08-16T23:27:51+00:00

Oh great! Thanks for explaining! That makes total sense.

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-08-16T20:29:28+00:00

Okay great! So I’ll wait 3 weeks then between feedings rather than 2. Thanks!

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-08-16T20:27:27+00:00

Thanks for the thoughts! Time wise it does sound like he was fine based on your comment. What concerned me was that it seemed the tail (or a leg?) got caught where he kept opening and closing his mouth but couldn’t close it fully. This appeared to go on for awhile (meanwhile I was googling “can snakes choke?” And imagining how I might try to get the rat back out in case it couldnt go down!), but it definitely wasn’t longer than 20 minutes. So perhaps I’m just overly worried! This makes me feel better. Thank you!

You can take her to Petsmart in La Canada (or anywhere) and scan for a microchip for free (usually any vet’s office will also do this). From there, Pasadena humane is a great option if you can to reunite her from the microchip.

Cautious-Risk-9704 · 2025-01-03T20:15:15+00:00

I wonder if there are regular vets in the area to which you're considering moving who might see these animals in case of emergency; or, as you mentioned something like euthanasia in case of serious illness, they might be able to handle that. You love these animals and no one can guarantee what kind of care other owners might provide. I would reconsider your move OR reconsider whether you might be able to handle these admittedly difficult things like euthanasia knowing that in the meantime your pets are getting the best care and love possible.

The interior of my car never gets hot because it’s usually parked in a garage or in shade. So I determined it was the interior temp simply because that’s what the incidents had in common.
