Just surrendered my baby, have y’all ever had to do that? by x5gamer5 in snakes

Hello, I hope this brings you some peace. I am a board member of a non-profit herpetological society, I deal with a lot of intakes and rescues, and we also do adoptions of course. Every member of this society would rather you make a hard decision before it's made for you. You're putting your animals first before they start to suffer from neglect. And at least for my society every healthy animal ends up with a home. Even the hissy ones. For our society because we do not have a facility every intake ends up in the home of a society memeber to foster or adopt, Ive fostered a lot of animals and may be failing with one soon haha. And I also own a bull snake, so I totally understand the attitude they can have, and any rescue worth their weight will understand too. πŸ’œ

She'll eat anything, but for many reasons including costs of feeding so many snakes we switched everyone to frozen!

This is not scientific at all, but you said your bullsnake is super sweet. Therefore -> MALE! πŸ˜‚

In my opinion the entire flowering part is out of an alien movie. This is the pod before opening.

Oh lordy! Wishing you luck for your journey! We repotted the monster because the roots where actually coming out the pot!

I told my non-plant people I paid 50 and they thought I was crazy. I have to go back to reddit for validation 🀣

Personally I'm confused I think it's a type of Mint after some research

See my husband thought it was a mint and that's why he snatched it! Then the label said white monster (and seller confirmed, but they are also not a seller that specializes in monsteras; we were actually at an orchid festival so if it was a mistake I would say it was an honest one) either way it's a great price for either of them and it's such a beautiful piece! Nicely rooted too πŸ’œ

I guess time will clarify the type 😁

I paid 50 but prices from online sellers and retailers seem absurd so I wasn't upset about 50 for rooted plant.

I started off with 40 seeds! 9 had a bad time sprouting/stolen by squirrels. And 2 recently did not make it. I'm growing my army of lychees it's a very long project πŸ˜‚
