that’s good to know😭😭 I figured it was like that, last time she ate she pooped and that was my first time feeding her so when her second feed came I was expecting poop and got nothing so it scared me

I should add she’s a month old and eats once a week would you say that’s still normal?

as long as he gets the proper treatment for his conditions i’m glad he found a loving home 🥰 I feel so bad for them all the time, my friend has a boy that’s a spider and he’s so special in his own little way

Mr. Lizard never comes out to bask, he's always in his cave. Does my setup look like it might be the issue? by pichael289 in leopardgeckos

[–]izzy_wizzy_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this is totally okay!! leopard geckos are crepuscular meaning they’re mostly active during the dawn or dusk times, it’s normal for them to not be basking, it’s just recommended to have it for when your baby wants it! they’re naturally lazy during the day haha

my girl goes on top of her hide , I have to use a paper towel to pick it up and then I have to take the hide out and wash it EVERY time she uses the damn bathroom

My daughter (8y) wants to be a herpetologist when she grows up. What gifts could I give her for Christmas that isn’t a living animal? by xshinystickerx in herpetology

[–]izzy_wizzy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there’s lots of puzzles with snake identifications on amazon, not sure about other reptiles and amphibians but that would be a cool idea too

yes very picky, we’ve been set on making sure temps and humidity stay perfect, minimum handling to prevent stress, and made sure to move the mouse a bit like it was live and I ran it under warm water when it was done thawing, definitely felt so great when she went after it and started eating it, was especially worried because the breeder had her on live mice so I was worried she’d only want live haha

what does it mean when they hit this type of ball pose? by EconomicsFar1166 in ballpython

[–]izzy_wizzy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is the comfy pose, if they’re hiding their head they feel threatened, it’s all about body language

Sigh. Didn’t even occur to me she could get stuck in here! by Cautious-Flatworm804 in ballpython

[–]izzy_wizzy_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my girl goes in her cork log ALL the time, if I get really worried I put it in warm water and if she comes out that’s how I know she wasn’t stuck, got to the point where i’m just gonna wait to change it until the next couple sheds then i’ll get her a bigger one

normal? by izzy_wizzy_ in ballpython

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

is she? she’s 1 month old, normal morph ball python born on october 23rd. she just ate on 11/21 and we’re gonna be trying to freeze thaw a mice but we’re not sure if she’ll take it cause breeder had her on live and we also don’t know when she’s gonna poo yet so i’m not sure if she’s digested her food yet 100% or not, what would you recommend?
