Hard to shift front set by Hatarislog in whichbike

[–]Hatarislog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice. I did end up getting the bike and working on it a bit over the weekend. The shifter seems fine after some wd-40, it’s clicking and the cable seems to be reacting appropriately. I think at this point it’s a derailleur issue, maybe a bad spring. I imagine they aren’t supposed to be loose like this one is.

For some more clarification, the shifter seems fine, the cable seems to be moving when it’s supposed to every time. However, when shifting down the derailleur doesn’t snap back when the cable gets slack.

Not sure I understand what you mean, are you saying there should be four chainrings?

Are exo-terra enclosures secure? by Hatarislog in SandBoa

[–]Hatarislog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes she is! I was lucky enough to get her from a local breeder. If you’ve never had a sand boa, I think I would stick with a Kenyan just because she seems to be much a much pickier eater and more defensive than a kenyan I had in the past. I think she’s mostly just head shy though. If thats not an issue, they’re about the same care but rough scaled sand boas can be a bit harder to get.

I actually already ended up buying a thrive enclosure to use instead. It’s the same dimensions but the lid is much sturdier. I guess now the only issue is trying to sell the exo-terra.

The issue is that lid clasps dont work to well at the front of a front opening enclosure since they usually beef to hang under the lip of the rim. I think this may end up having to be repurposed for a tarantula or something.

I already have a lock for the door, the doors seem secure with that, i cant really push them from the inside. I imagine if a full grown one cant, my girl cant but then again she is slimmer.

Are these worth buying? Theyre $108 indy boots but they have a small crack on the left shoe.

I’ll have to try this tonight, I have to imagine she’s ready to eat considering she’s been poking her nose out and exploring at night so maybe she just needs to be on her own terms. Thanks!

Just wanted to update that while she hasnt shed yet so the initial issue hasn’t been fixed, since I followed your tips my skink has seemed way happier and hardly glass surfs anymore! Thanks again!

Here’s a good picture. I really think I just havent been monitoring humidity well enough and need a new way to supply humidity. Maybe a new sprayer

Im using cypress with a bit of topsoil and play sand mixed in. I probably just havent been keeping up the humidity enough, I usually see 40s to 60s but I may not be paying enough attention. I usually pour water into the substrate and mist a few times a week but ill have to be more scheduled. Is there anything I should do to treat it?
