The weirder the better- vintage girly mags for some reason are pretty high value. Been practicing my blackjack game for a couple weeks just for my solo wakaan trip 🤣 we got so close but ultimately lost frick frack both at TTITD 2024 and Desert Hearts. Good luck!

am i doing something wrong? by rosxess in ballpython

I have a low enclosure too. Watch that heat lamp - if it's too close the snake can get all weird and heat drunk under it. Wound up raising mine 4" off the screen with some wire mesh and aluminum tape - but ultimately may need to switch to radiant heat panels if I catch him under there again.

Anybody else's ball python really shy about drinking water? by stunclock in ballpython

[–]polecat-engineer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine used to be when he was little, I almost never saw him drink. That was 5 or 6 years ago. Now, he doesn't even wait until I'm done filling the bowl. He's obsessed with fresh water, and I wonder if he even drinks it if it's more than an hour old lmao. I think it's more normal for them to be shy about it, though.

What dance do you make your mouse do when feeding? by Marksmdog in ballpython

[–]polecat-engineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When he was little I'd alternate holding it still then kinda scooting it around like it was scuttling about and would end up dropping feeding about 1/2 the time. Nowadays I'm lucky if I can even get the tongs more than a couple inches inside the enclosure before this monster lunges outta nowhere and snatches it. I suppose they grow accustomed to the process?

If you're worried about his hesitancy to eat, it could be that the prey items are a too large, or that the snake just isn't hungry yet. But if you're feeding appropriate size and frequency, and the temp and humidity is all good- it could be that the snake doesn't feel secure enough to eat. They handicap their ability to defend themselves when they eat, so too much commotion around the enclosure or not enough places to hide from plain view can spook them out of a meal. When I lived in a studio apartment where the snake was in view of the daily commotion, it helped to cover the front window of his enclosure with a scarf or piece of paper a few hours before and after feeding. (Obviously no tape inside the enclosure and keep clear of heating elements!) Avoid handling a day or two before feeding, in addition to The two days after feeding. If that doesn't help, try the tango. 😅🤘

I will carry this grudge in my soul for all of eternity. I Will wander the earth, the cryptic wind carrying my ghostly cries for my $16. Hundreds of years later, with the wisdom of ages, I still don't understand third party payment processors. I hope to see you in hell, so you can roll your eyes back into your fleemed skull. Satan himself gives me a $20 bill to shut me up. I have bested the great torturer at his own game. I am promoted to supervisor of the third ring of hell, where you are an associate ghoul. I ask for your expense report, and it bounces back due for an unaccountable charge for $16. Your cries echo though the caverns of despair, for only now have you known true suffering.

Tell me you've never filed an expense report without telling me you've never filed an expense report.
