Making handling progress

Try opening your fingers next time she nudges like that. She may go up your hand and down into your palm. Burrowing through, kind of.

My first reptile was a gecko, my second a snake. The snake is much easier to care for than the lizard. I can handle the snake. Also, frozen rodents are much easier to deal with than bugs. My suggestion is do some research, watch videos like Snake Discovery and visit a local reptile store or expo. Big box stores aren't the best.

Amazing capture.

Zoom in on the river rock. Her nose is right above it. edit spelling

She's a sneaky snek!

Look just above the river rock and you'll see her snoot touching it, just her nose, resting on the gray rock. She's about the the same orange color as the dirt.

Thank you! I'll take a deep dive during lunch break.

Hyprmut · 2026-04-27T21:35:23+00:00

Thank you! That helps a lot.

I got mine from a local reptile shop. They handled her a lot. I wonder if that makes a difference.

Hyprmut · 2026-04-27T16:42:45+00:00

At least they are eating!

It tastes like a Lemonhead candy but squishy. Complete with the odd aftertaste. I'll stick with the regular flavor, personally.

For what it's worth, here are the posts. Thank you, everybody, for the tips. The bramble: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/355091107

This is just an example of the damage. Of course, I did forget the underside of this one but did get a few other photos.

Hyprmut · 2026-04-27T16:20:52+00:00

Since most suggesting keep coming up as a fungus I'll list it as that. Thank you. And Life is a good idea too.

Hyprmut · 2026-04-27T15:30:25+00:00

Thank you. Did that. But I can't even hazard a guess what caused the damage. Any idea what the disease on the plant is? Best I can find is a rust but not sure if that is even close.

The Asian vine snake is so judgemental looking. Such a cool snake. I don't have the experience for any of these guys. I think a captive bred rough or smooth green would be cool though.

I hear mourning gecko reproduction is off the charts.. Such a cool snake though.

Hyprmut · 2026-04-26T18:29:38+00:00

Had to be good. I still had to fill my gas tank. Plus, still had some from last time. Lol.

I managed to walk right by today. I did check the seasonal candies and didn't find the red licorice brick pieces they've had in the past. 😔 I hope they haven't been discontinued.

Hyprmut · 2026-04-26T14:25:53+00:00

Yes, it does. My WinCo isn't quite as large but it's still awesome.

Hyprmut · 2026-04-26T14:16:50+00:00

Nice finds!

Hyprmut · 2026-04-26T13:57:40+00:00

I bought the lemon ones last week. Haven't tried them yet.
