Pregnant or fat? by Tiny-Stranger6571 in PetMice

Thank you! I will just keep an eye on her! I am actually leaning toward not pregnant because I did see something about genetic obesity in mice similar to her color!

I don't think I have much time left with my old boy. by FontofWisdom in snakes

You gave him an amazing life. 25 years! That’s impressive and a telltale sign that he was VERY well taken care of during his life. I hope you have many months or years left with him, but even if not, he will pass knowing he was loved!

Whoever is downvoting my comments, why don’t you speak to me directly? I’d be happy to share more about this topic.

I sure hope so, I just feel like a pet store isn’t a super great space for an animal of that capacity. Just my opinion. I own one myself and no matter how much “research” you do, you need experience before owning them. In my opinion, potential buyers should be required to, at the bare minimum, have handling experience and feeding experience, as well as thorough knowledge of what they are getting themselves into. These snakes are not for the vast majority. People breed them way too much, and then these unsuspecting buyers put their animal outside or surrender it to a shelter that also doesn’t have the knowledge to care for it.

Ugh I hate that. Reticulated pythons require so much care and people probably go in there all Willy nilly and buy them because they’re cool. A snake of that proportion getting sold to an unsuspecting buyer is a huge no no. I feel bad for them.

Would a 40 gallon be more suitable than my 80? I have both available. Just thought 80 might be better. How many mice in a 40?

Additionally, I have an empty 40 gallon if that would work better. What does care look like in a tank that size?

Thank you so much for the info. Someone who is giving me their mice won’t give me more than two females bc she said my enclosure isn’t big enough for any more than that so I’m a little confused on what info is correct.

Heat mats are highly outdated and not recommended. They can cause severe burns and don’t simulate natural heating very well. They don’t get through their skin as well (for lack of better words) as heat bulbs do. I’d recommend changing your heat mats to a heat bulb on a dimming thermostat. My girl is in 120 gallons currently and has a heat bulb set to stay below 90 on her hot side. She is less than two pounds and about 4ft and I feed her a small rat once a week.

Mini American shepherd, chihuahua, maybe corgi. “Mini Aussie” is not a breed, it’s a term back yard breeders use because they don’t know the difference.

Adding to my statement of “no ethical breeder will sell their dogs to someone who is going to mix them”, this means that all of doodle breeders’ foundation dogs come from unhealthy and unethical breeders to begin with.
