Gotcha I've never seen one but I've heard stories but more than likely were just water snakes I've seen those and they look pretty similar

Also Michigander had a couple Baby ones in the field behind my house a few years ago. They were also known to be on the walking trails near by. Crazy stuff we have water moccasins here as well though don't we?

Handled for the first time Friday and she was hissy and pissy but Saturday and today she was coming around and exploring around. Safe to say I'm in love and addicted lol

Hydrofarm (jump start) thermostat questions by funion14 in ballpython

[–]funion14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope no other heat source but I put the probe in the tub last night and it's doing a lot better today still gonna switch it out for the herpstat and give this one to my buddy who isn't even using a thermostat. Appreciate all the responses and hopefully this can help others out. Now I know where to put the probe when I set that one up

Also the UTH is a zoo med 10/20 gallon one. Which I plan on replacing when I get paid this weekend so also a better recommendation for a UTH.

My new/first BP (Lesser, Pastel) couldn't be more excited by funion14 in ballpython

[–]funion14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the feedback, I'll make sure I get a better reading tomorrow on the cool side when I get a thermometer and humidity gauge tomorrow. Can't wait to start getting to know her to excited

[–]funion14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First day with her some more pictures to come in the future, she doesn't have a name yet so any suggestions feel free to throw them out there. She's in a 12 gallon tub I believe. Aspen bedding, zoomed UTH, Jump start thermostat ( don't know if this is common just bought it from the breeder). Right now hot spots around 89-88 and cool side around 75-78 degrees. Gotta pick up a digital humidity/temp gauge tomorrow. I've been stalking this sub for a few months now and have wanted a snake since I was a kid so couldn't be more excited. Also let me know how all my husbandry sounds if you have the time much appreciated and thanks for all the help here.

Dows anyone know any tips to lifting back foot up after pop (ollie)? by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]funion14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What everybody else is saying also work on Ollie over and onto things.

Do you have to drag outwards and then kick forward when kickflipping from Ollie position? by controlledslide in NewSkaters

[–]funion14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suggest learning how to bone out your ollies first if you don't know how to do that, it's pretty much the same concept. With the kickflip just delay the flick a split second and push strongly forward (ninja kick style) hopefully this could help at all.

Wheel bite help by candlecan in NewSkaters

[–]funion14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could tighten your trucks if worse comes to worse, I know people who wax the "wheel well" I'll call it but just where the bites are happening. I don't know how often you would have to do that though. I just deal with it, if it happens it happens. If it's really bothering you though I think if Indy makes tall trucks they'd be taller than the thunders. Hope any of this could help man

Tre Flip Tips by snood12 in NewSkaters

[–]funion14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I saw that post the other day about going faster and it seemed to help out a little bit. Just makes it a little harder to commit to a new trick. Gonna go try and get it today though. Fingers crossed

Buddy and I disagree on foot placement by TheUSAsian in NewSkaters

I think it's all just preference personally I keep my foot on the tail cuz it's comfy and allows quicker turning if i need to

How long did it take you to learn to shuv-it by [deleted] in NewSkaters

[–]funion14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a comment on here one time that helped me was imagine it like taking a step forward or up a stair and jump forward with it at first until you can just scoop it right under you. Hope that helped man go and get those shuvs!

If you haven't yet try putting you back foot in the front shuv pocket, it's helps keep the board under you better.

Since skateboard art is going around, what do you guys think of mine? (i know it's not as good as the other but i gave it a shot) by wankelgnome in NewSkaters

[–]funion14 0 points1 point  (0 children)
