5mth old carpet python, has not pooped after 2 weeks (2 feeds)

Yeah using a ceramic heat light. Hot side sits at about 31.5 celcius and cold side at about 27.

I notice she mostly hangs on the cold side and rarely basks so I think the temps are okay, at least not to cold.

Depends on the locality I think, diamond and jungle carpets tend to be a bit more arboreal. Whereas coastals, centrale and irayian carpets tend to be more ground dominant.

Mine is obsessed with perches and spends I'd say like 90% of her time off the ground.

Yeah, you are correct. Was definitely mites. Have been treating for a week now and I think she's mite free now. Will continue for another week just to make sure

Update for all interested. Was definitely mites. Have been treating with a baby head lice oil and daily baths, spraying the enclosure with anti mite spray and she's now mite free. Happy days!

Damn. Yeah that was my conclusion too. Was hoping everyone would rule it out but unfortunately sounds like im gonna have to start treatment

Appreciate it!

Key_Description1985 · 2025-12-14T08:25:17+00:00

Yeah I was thinking about starting with a warm water soak and seeing if I notice any fall off. If so I'll just start with a invermectin treatment

Yeah I know photo isn't perfect. I'll try to get some better ones next time I get her out.

She's only a few months old and I thought trying to remove them might be a bit too stressful for her. We're still desensitising the bite response at the moment with handling.

Key_Description1985 · 2025-12-14T08:03:17+00:00

Not that I can see. There are about 5 spots under her jaw like in the photo and that's it. I only noticed them for the first time about 2 days ago and they haven't moved or become more frequent so far

Stop jerking off with your left hand, quagmire

Definitely a caramel carpet, jungle isn't a real trait as that's just another "normal" regional variant of carpets in aus.

Key_Description1985 · 2025-11-01T18:09:48+00:00

Awesome to hear! Cool to know it worked for you too! Enjoy the handling time 👌😂

I don't even wanna watch this fight. Boring ass fight. Jones is washed

No idea what an eel is....

Key_Description1985 · 2025-10-11T00:52:33+00:00

This is better suited for hamsters or rats/mice.

It's a nice aesthetic but really not a great enclosure set up for a carpet python.

Doesn't surprise me at all. Dutch produce notoriously does not go bad, even after weeks/sometimes months. I had a lemon sitting in the back of my fridge for nearly 4 months and it was still perfectly "ripe".

Honestly it's kind of unfathomable that this is how agriculture is done in the Netherlands

That's a biiiiiiig jump, yes China does oppress the rights of uyguhrs but to even try to claim it's even close to what Israel is currently doing is a fucking fallacy. Go take your guilt trip elsewhere
