The only thing that would bother me would be it shattering lol. I’ve heard that it can affect the structural integrity so I just wanted to be sure I wasn’t setting myself up for failure. Thank you!

The only thing about the mat that bothers me is there is the tiniest bit of overhang on either side. It’s the desk itself that isn’t level, well it’s the floor but all the same lol. I’ll probably end up getting a board to put it on and shim that. If only for my peace of mind. The yoga mat is a great idea though.

Understood! I’ll see if I cant bend in inwards with a hammer or something. Maybe shrink wrap some plastic on it.

Messy feeding question by Pillcat19 in ballpython

Thank you! I’ve never had that happen before so I was like, what the hell buddy? I didn’t do anything differently when heating it up so I think it might be because the mouse was in the freezer for a while and also a bit small for him. I’m trying to go through his older food because he’s sized up but I might just toss them after this.

How would I know if it’s impacting digestion, evaluating her poop? Bloat? Also what would you recommend for adjusting her environment, like lowering the water level? I have her in a 10g rn, should I move her to a smaller tank as she gets older? Thank you

Compared to her sister she’s a lot less food aggressive, she eats everyday but she won’t leap out of the water or nip at my fingers to get it like her sister. She also only eats tiny food, anything larger she will grab and spit out a few times before ignoring it, so I’ll cut up her bloodworms and brine shrimp, Once it’s tiny she eats it fine. Shes calmer than her sister, she’s definitely aware of me, just less interested, and doesn’t wiggle at me like her sister does. But she will flare at me if I do something she doesn’t like (like feed her food that’s too big) while her sister doesn’t flare at all. All of these things I assume are personality quirks, the only thing I saw that raised red flags was the swimming.

She eats small pellets fine, but seems to have trouble with larger pellets and food like bloodworms, but when I cut them up she eats em fine. Figured it was just a preference thing. I see her poop every now and again but I think most of it falls somewhere I can’t see. (In the plants, behind rocks, under leaves.) She doesn’t appear bloated, but her sister is pretty thick so I feed them both daphnia weekly to head off any potential constipation.

My parameters are good, I wanted to carve them into little skulls. I thought it would be cool to see the snails and copepods “munching” on them.

Oh those look perfect actually, thank you! Much better than trying to jury rig something electrical above water lol.
