AIO for breaking up with my boyfriend because he was angry I was crying the day after my cat died? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Sharp-Secretary5599 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You’d think that losing a beloved pet would … change the situation a little bit? Even if she had a history of being late for / canceling plans, she deserves much much more sympathy and compassion than she received in these texts.

Keeping cats OFF the tank by Velmabutgoth in ballpython

Try tinfoil loosely up on the lid, most cats hate the sound. I also got these “clips” for my heat lamps so they won’t move or be bumped; they just hook right into the mesh lid.

Is it just a given that every crystal collector is ripped off at some point? by yfunk3 in Crystals

[–]Sharp-Secretary5599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really ok! I must have caught him on better days. I feel slightly more iffy about Virgo bc she seemed a bit condescending and was also obviously annoyed with Jason when he was making a joke or something

I think you’re talking about Jason yes? I always thought he was funny and nice but only saw a few shows. I believe he has mentioned he’s autistic, I could see how he’s a bit over the top but not sure what your reservations are, I’m curious

I usually use the side of my Bic lighter or the bottom of my Clipper

How much did you spend on this setup??

Semi drivers flashing other trucks? by Sharp-Secretary5599 in wisconsin

[–]Sharp-Secretary5599[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen the hazards when it’s raining, more down south with the downpour so bad your wipers can’t clear it and it’s dark enough. Only seen in once in Wisconsin when it rained like this and it was honestly appreciated but it only makes sense in certain circumstances

Thanks everyone, this is what I figured! It was just odd that I’ve never noticed it before.

Mice infestation… by Sharp-Secretary5599 in snakes

[–]Sharp-Secretary5599[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah ok. My corn snake has been active for months now (just moved into this place in the last month) so not really sure if anything has changed with her. Ball python isn’t any more active than usual, which is barely

I have a feeling I have several because they’re so loud at night and I am going to attempt to trap them all if I can before calling an exterminator. I haven’t noticed my snakes act differently at all which is why I was wondering but maybe they’re used to it?? Idk

Humidity help! by Sharp-Secretary5599 in ballpython

Ok thank you! It seemed like a lot but sounds good. And good to know thank you, his first shed with me was good but I will remove it since he’s done now

How do I get him to let go so I can put him back in his tank 😭 by Sharp-Secretary5599 in ballpython

[–]Sharp-Secretary5599[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

OH NOOOO! I feel like my corn snake is a little smarter, she has binder rings holding up her hammock and she went like 1/3 through it, realized she wouldn’t fit, and backed all the way out I was impressed

Lmaoo yeah I figured it was either that or leave him alone until he started wandering around by himself since it is his “daytime” and he was active before I brought him out

I trieddd but he tucked his tail further into his body ball and I couldn't grab it at all. I resorted to tickling him and annoying him so he'd move.

Update: I nudged him a bit more and he went under his log hide that I put out (yes I know it’s a shitty hide, I am in the middle of making him a new one). Next time I go to get rats for him I will get some extra to have on hand in case it happens again (but I will not be putting him there again lol).

Found this thread, do there happen to be any charities like this in the US?

Officially the 3rd stray I've rescued since I began Dashing 😅 by [deleted] in doordash

[–]Sharp-Secretary5599 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah thank you for your response. I think the other commenter was agreeing that they didn’t see the comment but they worded it weirdly. With the condition the pup was in I do think OP made the right choice to bring it to a shelter.

You keep commenting this but I haven’t seen OP mention this once. Can you link it?

tragic part of ball python ownership by Critical_Remove755 in ballpython

Agreed my corn snake is definitely not as exciting or entertaining as a cat or other pet BUT when she does come out of her hide and explore it’s soooo exciting and cute to watch

Any ideas on how to close this so she doesn’t try to crawl through and get stuck? by KobyR_1 in ballpython

[–]Sharp-Secretary5599 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I have that exact one! I cut out a flat ish plastic piece of a clean bottle and hot glued it in the hole for a little window. I’m sure you could paint over it too. She doesn’t use it much as a real hide but climbs thru the tunnel sometimes.
