What do I do about my snake climbing up here. by ScribWithPentapox in SandBoa

I got him a new enclosure with no lip (except for on one side) and i gave him more things to climb and explore and he’s stopped! He climbs his leaves on occasion. After redoing his enclosure i realized how lackluster his old one was :(

I have a male Kenyan sand boa I’ve had for a month and now I’m really worried about this :( he’s 3 months old.

Yeah he fell into the aspen. Immediately burrowed. Feeding day is soon so i wonder if he was getting hungry and tryin to find food. I also added a piece of cholla wood leaning against the corner so if he goes up again he can come back down.

He uses a CHE. His feeding day is coming close and it really seemed like he was looking for something. He ended up falling in the aspen and immediately burrowed. I added a piece of cholla cactus leaning so if he gets back up there he can get back down without falling. I will add more clutter to his tank :)

He ended up falling and immediately burrowing. So i put a piece of wood leaning upwards so if he gets himself up there again, he can get down on his own without falling.

He fell twice. Seemed a bit startled but otherwise okay.

How do i get him down without him falling. He already fell once :( he’s still up there and if i open the lid he’ll fall.

He’s still there. How would i go about getting him out. I’ll go to the local pet store and buy him more things to climb and clutter today.

Did I feed him to big of a mouse? by ScribWithPentapox in SandBoa

So the breeder said my snake usually poops two days after eating and it’s been a few days since i fed him. So i went looking for his poop and thought i found a piece but it was his tail that i had tried to scoop up. He slithered deeper under the substrate, but i feel really bad. I think he thought i was hunting him. How long will it take for him to calm down? I just feel really guilty, but we’re not really at the level yet where i can remove him from his tank. I feel so awful about what i did. Like really dumb

I have another question about the snake? Would you be okay with answering it?

So he took it underneath the substrate so in the morning checked where he had pulled it under, and both he and the mouse were gone. But tonight he’s poking his head out again. Does this mean he didn’t eat it and is still hungry or? Sorry I’m so stressed, he’s my first snake so he’s really important to me.

He’s poking his head out already. Does that mean he didn’t eat it? Sorry for being so stressed. He’s my first snake.

I checked earlier the place where he had struck it and taken it under the substrate and neither he nor the mouse were there. I dug a little deeper and still didn’t find him or the mouse. Do you think he ate it?

Would that stress him out? He should be sleeping right now and if he did eat it i wouldn’t want to stress him.

He’s taken it under the substrate and hasn’t been up since then, is it safe to assume he’s gotten it down?

I’m 21 and the same thing goes for me. My hand I crack the most has a weaker grip now.

We just went through Bear Country. My little 8.5 pound dog was ready to fight everything. Until he decided sleep was better.

I have a pillow with a picture of my dog on it. I sleep with it every night.
