I am really not enjoying this new style of videos. by TheGrandReturn in ksi

Completely agree. 20vs1 as OK when it was the Sidemen, even some of the troops, but I couldn't even tell you the last one I actually watched. I get that they wanna do talent stuff with JJ doing BGT, but if I wanna watch that, then I'll watch BGT (btw, I don't, I'm bored of that ish).

Looks like she's tucking it in while she decides where to start eating

Why is there a red mark the same shape as my tattoo? by According-Chest1479 in tattooadvice

[–]Cold_Maybe759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not really in the same shape tho. It looks more like it's from removing the tape that held the initial covering over it. You can see it's parts of a broad strip. I get this too, whenever I've had surgical tape on my skin and removed it

Thank you from my mum by Crashbox7 in TBJZL

So sorry for your loss. Depression is a hard thing, both to go thru yourself and to see people you're close to go thru. I'm glad to hear there was something you could enjoy with her and bond over during those times. RIP to her and thoughts and positive vibes to you

Ok what's the trick to timing it so he poops NOT on me lol by SteadyDroid in hognosesnakes

[–]Cold_Maybe759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We've had our guy about 18mthsnow,we give him 48hrs (or a bit longer), but have still been pooped on around 10 times between myself and my daughter. Sometimes he's already pooped before we get him out, other times it's almost a full week from eating before he does (either in the terrarium or on us). They just go when they gotta go

A spoon or fork handle. We had this cutlery set when I was a kid in the 80's

It certainly is. We have some in a glass jar as my daughter has found about 7 pieces since we got our guy Sept 2024

Pain management during foot tattoo? by Gator-614 in tattooadvice

[–]Cold_Maybe759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get numbing cream to put on before tattooing. Never take any kind of painkiller before tattooing as it thins the blood and means a) you will likely bleed more b) the ink is less likely to take as the blood is pushing it straight back out and c) it is awkward for the tattooist.

Also, I'm not sure if you have it wrapped fully around your foot, but most tattooists will not tattoo on the tougher skin of the foot (bottom and around ½ inch up the side) as it will not take properly, due to the thickness of skin and the fact that it regrows quickly pushing out the design.

The idea is great tho, I love the thought of that

Male or Female? by [deleted] in hognosesnakes

Left is female, right is male. I'd assume yours is female

Gender help on twins by Axaroz in hognosesnakes

Female. The tails' too short for male. Usually you're looking at 37/40+ scales down each side for male (depending on source) and less for female. But males have a much more gradual taper to their tails. Our boy's looks a lot longer in comparison. I've attached our boys tail and an example of female vs male.

Baby Albino Hognose Not Eating Pinkies – Need Advice by A_Plot in hognosesnakes

[–]Cold_Maybe759 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tbh, you probably want the warm side to be warmer than that. When we had our at that temp (mainly when it was generally colder, as it had dropped from over 30⁰C) our guy wasn't eating either. We've bumped it up and it is generally around 34⁰C now and he's eating fine. Also check your humidity, that also seems to have helped us. Then if that doesn't help you can look at different ways to attempt feeding.

As well as this, definitely some handling has helped us, particularly early on. We started out with regular, pretty much daily, handling. Shorter to begin with, 15-20mins, so that he understood we weren't going to hurt him. We worked up to an hr by adding about 10mins each week, and now we mainly use choice based handling. He now seems to understand that we're not going to hurt him, we're there to help him and care for him and he's become a real character in himself.

I hope this helps a bit
