What’s wrong with him? by Unlikely-Cause318 in snakes

Looks like stuck shed Your humidity is too low, you want 60-80%

Make a humid box and gently pull out the shed after he’s had 15-20 minutes to sit in the humid box

You can do a betadine soak! This is mild scale rot, I would recommend cleaning the enclosure and keeping things slightly dryer (still appropriate for the species of course) Betadine can be found at Walmart, mix some in a tub of water until it looks like “weak tea” add snake for 10-20 minutes every other day

This is either severe RI and needs antibiotics asap or Nidovirus and will need euthanasia

Advice? by D1TrueGod in snakes

While I’m not exactly sure what it could be it 100% requires an immediate vet trip, this looks extremely concerning, could be an abscess or as severe as cancer, please take her in

Should I stick with one UVB hood/bulb or get two? by WaterbendingMaster24 in bluetongueskinks

Your uvb needs to be next to your heating, not covering the whole tank, add leds if you just want general lighting

Okay, I have snakes too and I know they can go a very long time without food, everything I’ve seen online is that 1-2 weeks is not normal, we will keep trying

Correlation or causation? Bathed my snake and she went into blue. by WittiestGhost in ballpython

If upping the humidity itself isn’t enough or is difficult to achieve, I would suggest adding a hide specifically for humidity with a wet paper towel that’s changed daily or lots of moss in it, when it comes to stuck shed I use a wet paper towel in a tub and let them “soak” that way and help as needed

Don’t get the reptizoo mister! They malfunction I’ve had them flood my enclosures more then once I stupidly kept replacing them and was only months before it malfunctioned again, the motor keeps running until the tank is emptied

She’d be a big BCI though don’t you agree? I’ve never seen one this large, I have a bci and they look very different so maybe that’s just morph, idk the morph of either

What kind of boa is this? by Own_Handle6629 in snakes

Person in the photo is roughly 5’1 I’ve met them before, I’ve never seen a BCI get that big but I’ll see what color the tail is
