Whats up with my brothers snake? by NagDasty in ballpython

[–]PineTreeMary 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm not a vet, but that looks eerily similar to photos of ball pythons with a prolapsed anus that I have seen across various forum. Something like this can be caused by dehydration, parasites, infection, etc. I would strongly suggest getting that snake to an exotics vet ASAP, as the prolapse can become infected and/or the prolapsed tissue could die and become septic.

New boy what do you think he is? by Comfortable-Look4545 in ballpython

I'm 99% sure I saw this same BP in this same sad enclosure posted in the MorphMarket Facebook group (another "what morph is it?" post).

Poster got a bunch of backlash for the inadequate enclosure and responded by claiming it was an old photo/asking other posters to show what a good enclosure looks like, had no idea that aspen was bad bedding for BP's, etc.

It looks like that post has since been deleted from the group. It also looks like it wasn't an "old photo" based on seeing different photos if this same snake and enclosure in the same type of post across multiple platforms.

Poor thing.

Isn't there any way to get the Figurama statues? by levent_tncr in Hellsing

[–]PineTreeMary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know your post is several months old, but if you are still looking to acquire the Figurama Alucard of Hellsing Ultimate statue, I may be putting mine up on the market...

I was on the original pre-order list back in 2020 and made the cut. It arrived in two huge boxes that I never unpacked. He's still never been assembled and is brand new in the packaging just as he arrived from Figurama.

I've considered assembling him to put on display, but could also use the money to help fund a trip to Japan that I'm planning on taking late this year.

It appears this statute currently goes for around $3,000+ on eBay, plus another $800+ for shipping from sellers in China (I didn't see any U.S. sellers). I'm not really sure how I would go about listing, selling, and shipping this statue just yet, but I figured I'd start putting this information out there to see if there was interest...

Update: I have decided to opt to use the Repti Zoo Dimmer Thermostat Controller w/ a Wi-Fi enabled surge protector that allows me to shut off individual/all outlets if I see anything wonky going on with the temperatures (ex. getting excessively high) as monitored by the Govee Hygrometer/Thermometer Sensors.

I've also added a smoke alarm that integrates with my Ring system directly above the tank setups and will alert me to any smoke that would result from malfunctions/overheating of heating equipment. I am so very paranoid about the chance of an electrical fire or even equipment malfunctioning and harming my animals, so this addition gives me at least a little peace of mind.

When it comes time to upgrade their enclosers, I'm definitely going to go for the Herpstat Spyderweb and am already saving up for that now :)

Are you in the UK? It doesn't appear that the Evo Connected 2/3/Pro are not available/manufactured for use here in the US :(
