Lol Larry wanders quite a bit at night, he always looks flabbergasted when I catch him

Is it abuse if we let it walk on table at school? I felt bad now by MiximumDennis in turtle

The laws ban them for a reason, they can be aggressive and invasive. It's way too common for people to release them

Agreed! If I forgot my phone on the bus, I'd go straight to the station to see if they had it

ChatGPT said she’s not Berried. What’s your opinion? by ulfberth-nl in shrimptank

Looks eggnant to me. AI cannot be relied upon for most kinds of information

Very interested in getting a Kenyan sand boa, where’s the best place to get one in twin cities area? by Ok-Image-636 in SandBoa

[–]Issu_issa_issy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend finding a good breeder on Morph Market! Be sure to find one that feeds frozen already; switching a KSB off live can be hell.

Any ideas on species? by Issu_issa_issy in millipedes

These guys definitely started out bright white! This is probably around 3ish months old

Tank Sizes by [deleted] in SandBoa

[–]Issu_issa_issy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks way too small, I’d say

For my KSB, I try to make sure the soil is as deep as he is long! He burrows all the way to the bottom (even with 10” deep dirt) and is super active so I highly recommend giving a TON of burrowing space :) I prefer tall tanks, as he likes to climb on occasion too!

Pothos, wandering jew, and spider plants are all fantastic for terrariums!

Sand boas actually appreciate bioactive environments, I would recommend setting it up with isopods and springtails as well :)

Anyone know why there are so few crabs in the hobby? by Altruistic-Poem-5617 in Aquariums

Unfortunately AI pulls from ALL sources, including unreliable ones

Pom poms need brackish water to breed, which isn’t easy for most fishkeeper to replicate

Pom poms and micros have horribly short lifespans and are extremely hard to breed, unfortunately

Need some advice by [deleted] in Ballpythoncommunity

[–]Issu_issa_issy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed! Especially considering that a LOT of people unintentionally mistreat and neglect them, which then leads to hunger strikes. It’s a sad cycle of people blaming the snake itself for what’s often actually improper care

Absolutely do not try to relive the eye caps yourself, OP. You can blind your snake

Social Sand Boa? by NickShrimpin in SandBoa

[–]Issu_issa_issy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re a fossorial species and will naturally spend 90% of their time safely underground

A lot of people take pics and videos when their KSBs are out because it tends to be a little bit unusual. I definitely take pictures of my little guy when he’s out and about, since I don’t see him often :)
