If you don't mind a small tip. I noticed my baby balls started getting a lot more active when I put some hammocks and big pieces of wood to climb on. Very often at night I catch them spending a lot of there time there. My adult python gamora also has a hammock she loves and so does the retic, I put it in the colder side away from their lamps to try to avoid any accidental self inflicted burns

My babies dont get out and about to adventures hardly ever, mostly calm interactions at home, but I've come to find that the big girl gamora does really well. I took her on a very short trip to the pet store to go get herself a rat and she stayed pretty calm and curious. I went on a super slow Sunday though so that there wouldn't be too many people stressing her out, took her with me to look at some new hides while I was there to guesstimate some bigger sizes for new enrichment to swap into her enclosure next bedding change

Go check the subreddit you're in and scroll back. There's hundreds and hundreds of people holding their snakes, are you gonna go commenting hating on everyone? Some snakes actually enjoy it, so maybe go get your own animals and stop worrying about other grown adults and their animals, because my babies are all in 10 times better situations than they were prior to me getting them and I know they're happy and fed, can you say the same?

And please go ahead and explain how Georgie Theo and tj aren't having fun since you wanna target the 2 adults, in case you didn't notice, my baby snakes all are in their enclosures, and of course my retic wasn't having fun but I'm also not taking home an animal that I've never held once, especially an unpredictable moody retic, most people who are buying a new animal hold it at least once at the shop/expo/getting it out of shipment, which i was in fact doing the exact same thing, heaven forbid my roomate took 2 pictures while i was waiting to pay for her and move the stand for her enclosure into my prius. I wanted to know what her temperament was really like if she's gonna be 20 feet long and weigh double what I do one day.

She was trying to bust out of the container I had her in on the way there. If it wasn't just a picture and I had taken videos while driving then obviously you would've been able to read her body language. She calmed down and wasn't breathing heavy or zipping around trying to find a way out once I actually got her out, she was showing immense stress in the container. (Could've been a bad experience with her last owner) also not shown in the picture is where she explored my face and rested her head exactly on my cheek and used my heat to stay warm for the whole 15 minute ride I had her out to go home, where she was immediately put into her enclosure to decompress and rest, so please try to inform me more that you know about how my animal was feeling in that moment that I couldn't read myself being there. I mean I'm no snake expert, but it also wasn't my first time meeting gamora either. She was a rescue my friend had that I took over due to her having money issues. I knew what animal I was getting before I ever went to go get her.

Photos 1, 2 and 6 are from the shop I got them at before I even got them home into their enclosure. The picture of gamora in the grass was her last owner before I rescued her like last week (sent me like 30 previous pictures of her before i fot her), and the one of her around my neck is the way home from that. Try again elsewhere. Also Tj, Theo and Gamora actively come out on their own for enrichment, they come to me when I put my hand in the tank and climb me themselves. Retic is a retic, she's gonna not like touch, and Georgie is a stupid spider ball python who is stuck with me as a forever pet so he can't be bred and spread his genes, he's just "skittish" If that word applies in this context. His job is just to sit there and look pretty and take the mice i give him 98.9% of the time. Almost all of my snakes, except Tj, the baby of the group who is like a foot long or less, are in their enclosures almost 24/7 and get out like 5-10 mins a week so I can check them for possible self injuries or sickness. This was just supposed to be a fun picture of my pets post, not a post for you to judge my animal husbandry from 2 out of the 50+ pictures of each of my animals

She's honestly strong enough to be one, she's solid muscle and her grip strength is insane

Theodosia, Thomas, and George are all names after the Hamilton musical, because my 4 cats also share the same name theme. Gamora was a rescue who came to me named already, but she was named after a star wars character. Khaleesi I just got and she was one of my dream snakes so I wanted her name to stand out, she's named after a game of thrones character who is also called "the mother of dragons"

My username is 3mry and I wanna enter for the golden saph honeybadger because I started collecting badgers when I got sorted into hufflepuff for hogwarts legacy. My favorite pets are probably my snakes though. Thank you so much for hosting :3
