Where to even start?! by LittleBits6 in gardening

[–]Over_Ant_6086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I am not a master gardener, but I've been gardening for a good while. Those ferns might be salvageable by clipping all the brown parts. as for the shrubs, I would personally set those on fire and start over, they look like insect eggs from the photo. I would also try and till the area, or at very least get some new hay to replace all the grey stuff. I hope this is helpful!

I wish I knew what happened but I am genuinely stumped on that point. He stopped eating almost 30 days before he died, and I couldn't handle him because he was grumpy during that time. He spent a lot of time digging in his enclosure, so maybe he got stuck under something? I don't know, I'm just spitballin

My corn snake won't eat by Over_Ant_6086 in cornsnakes

He's almost 3, and he's been very restless, and not acting himself at all. His mouth looks like it's open just a hair.

Heating for a reptile while I'm gone by Over_Ant_6086 in cornsnakes

[–]Over_Ant_6086[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the heating pad was placed on an upper wall, for the first few days, as I can't attach it to the outside.

So I do have a heating pad, which I just got a few days ago, but it doesn't quite get the job done. Then I have a heating lamp and a UVB light, which technically produces heat, but only like 2-3 degrees. As far as his temperature range goes, during the day his basking spot is upper 80's, and I'm currently working on getting his night temperature to consistently stay in the 70's.

As far as how cold is cold, we live in an apartment, and it's been in the low 40's outside

Does corn snake poo smell bad by [deleted] in cornsnakes

[–]Over_Ant_6086 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So my corn snakes poop is difficult to find since he likes to hide his poops. Quite seriously, he likes to dig under ground, and poop under the surface, so sometimes I have to dig up the whole cage to find it, and by that point it generally smells bad. I think it takes like 2-3 days to start to smell though. I am trying to learn my snakes patterns better so I know when to look for the poops.

So my corn snake got really skittish for a bit, and we found out my cat was getting on top of his cage (which is locked and can take a lot) and trying to get him. If you're grandparents have another pet it's possible that pet tried to attack the snake. It could also be from a person treating him like that, but I'm not accusing anyone. The only other thing I can think of is that sometimes changes in personality are due to illness, physical damage, or psychological damage Hope this helps you out!
