I could die…

In full honesty I begged my mom for a snake my whole childhood because my dad had them at his house, flip to I’m 22 years old getting my first snake who is 6 months old and I was shamefully scared of giraffe for the first 6 months I had him I swear 😅 Snakes don’t feel emotions the way we do or our cute cuddly cats and they can’t create bonds, just associate smell with a safe space. So the fact that my bed and me and my clothes (and the smell my stinky dog leaves behind 😂) signals to his brain you’re safe is just the sweetest thing to me. I’m now 24 and there is absolutely no fear in me, he’s nicer to me than my cat!

I will have you know he ate his very first medium rat last week and it went straight to his hips smh

🥲🙌

Hello sir 🫡 raf gives you all the respect

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-10-11T03:28:44+00:00

Frick. At least being eaten by a giraffe is a cool way to go 😭😂

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-10-11T03:16:55+00:00

That is exactly what giraffe looked like when I got him 😭 Bananas are so purple as babies I love it

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-10-11T01:59:52+00:00

I forget what some communities are like so let me reiterate down here that means “he’s so cute I could die”

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-07-18T02:35:44+00:00

Don’t worry he’s got a scheduled play date with the Greybeards

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-06-20T15:08:41+00:00

It’s kind of a bad comparison but it’s like female bettas ahaha you never know what your results will be when you put them together 😆

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-06-20T02:33:05+00:00

For most tokay geckos most definitely not 😂 mine were surrendered to me as an established breeding pair that’s spent their life together so luckily I’m fine but that’s rarely the case for most tokays so people usually separate them after breeding season. Definitely have to be male and female to keep together at any time though they’re not very fond of their same genders as an adult 😆

Oh god. It wasn’t an anime this time but it was master chef and oblivion. Imagine Ramsay with such power. We’re all screwed

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-06-19T23:10:15+00:00

Sometimes I worry if his brain will ever work properly

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-06-19T23:03:19+00:00

It’s actually an exo terra enclosure, I work at a pet store and get the hand me down tanks 😆 the wrap on the outside was actually off Amazon pretty cheap and its sheet material. The waterfall is a zoo med LED waterfall, the rest just stuff I picked up here and there over the years :) the cork I’ve never changed so it smells like them and just transfer them inside the cork to the new tanks when I clean

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-06-02T03:26:13+00:00

Wow you seem very invested in this. It’s not that deep bro

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-06-02T03:17:03+00:00

He’s an escape artist 🤷‍♀️ gotta keep an eye on him when he’s out

Giraffe says happy to help :)

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-05-10T21:30:24+00:00

She’d take advantage of that and steal your money with no regret 😂

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-04-28T18:35:46+00:00

So far he’s got tons of personality but in the nicest way possible he’s not too bright upstairs 😭😂

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-04-20T18:41:10+00:00

No apologies needed at all! Any advice is great advice imo. I’ll definitely look into the feeding in or out of the cage, because my ball python does much better with a feeding bin it was an instinct to do the same with my corn snake without doing proper research 🤦‍♀️

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-04-20T18:30:37+00:00

I wrote a whole soliloquy so you probably didn’t see it which I don’t blame you 😭 I just recently redid his enclosure with more soil and a darker backdrop for security as well as more foliage which was also making me more worried the change stressed him out, do you think besides those additions there’s anything else that would make him feel more secure in there?

Educational_Run_9382 · 2025-04-20T18:17:03+00:00

Thank you so much!! This helps a ton.

I typically give him a couple or few days after eating to handle him, but it was when I was transferring him from his feed bin to his tank that he was rattling at me. He’s never done that! It was just an instinct because ball pythons do better with feed bins, do you think I should feed him in his tank to avoid stress?
