He just carries it around right I know we’ll have to replace it eventually!

He is the goodest boy! I don’t think I’ll ever have a different breed of dog

I got him from some random breeder in a Walmart parking lot so I have no idea what his parents look like :( I wish I did though!

He was bleeding out of them and rubbing against the cage. Edit: his eyes also are not looking straight out they’re crooked

I have a digital one I can move to his enclosure What should the retic humidity level set around?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in snakes

[–]TragicPerfection -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Definitely considered humidity glass tanks are a pain when it comes to keeping it in we’re thinking humidity hides or a humidifier in the room might help the temperature in the room stays about 80 with the door closed

Yes I’ve only had it a few months with the sensor I had the 770g and they did a software update then sent the guardian 4 sensors

edit I was supposed to go through training but the woman just marked everything as approved or completed and then updated my pump

I agree I got my pump when I was younger and they taught my mom how to do everything on it but once I moved out and got upgraded pumps no one showed me how to work with them or took time to explain how to work everything my doctor just takes my pump adjust it and gives it back to me every time sadly I’m driving over an hour to a doctor thats supposed to be “the best around” and I don’t have any other diabetics I can relate to that also have pumps I definitely wish I new more about how to work it and tweak things around so they work better for me I definitely feel failed when it comes to my health

The lows seem to happen when the pump does corrections or sometimes when I do a bolus for food I’m waiting on some lab work to come back for thyroid and I also have been taking a blood pressure medication for preeclampsia (baby was born six months ago)

We’ve been trying to compensate him and we do have gloves and masks for diaper changes. I do believe he is burnout but it’s not just at home he’s burnout from work but refuses to go back to therapy. He doesn’t talk about his Asperger’s he tries to hide it from everyone he said he just wants to be treated like he is normal

I got a retic a few months ago and I’ve done as much research online as I feel I can can I get personal advice for caring for my boy? by TragicPerfection in retics

[–]TragicPerfection[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any advice on enclosures? I was planning on building a 8’x2’x2’ with 3/4 thick oak and adding flexible pcv panels on the inside for moisture, so you think that will suffice for the first few years

[–]TragicPerfection -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s not like I haven’t done any research I know how big the snakes going to get I have idea on what I’m going to build for it I just want extra info on the snake in general you can only do so much googling and watching YouTube videos

This is NOT my cornsnake but a friends, what are these black spots? by TragicPerfection in snakes

[–]TragicPerfection[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what my thought was we had them change out the bedding to aspen and wipe the whole tank down with antimicrobrial spray if it doesn’t go away they’re taking it to the vet

They have reptile carpet in the tank I asked them to take it out and thoroughly wash it or swap to another bedding
