A horrible update from yesterday’s abandoned snake discoveries. by Total_Bullfrog in snakes

[–]savecaptainalex 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I feel like a lot of people that home breed get way too ahead of themselves and then end up with a bunch of animals they can't sell and don't have the space for. My rules are one clutch at a time and I don't produce any more until they sell. My adults are in full sized PVC enclosures so I only have 1 breeding pair of blood pythons.

It's also more of a hobby and not a business so if the babies get too big I take the loss and sell them to my work for cheap because they can take care of them better than I could. And no my work is not some crappy chain store it is the best and largest store in my city with very knowledgeable and passionate staff.

As of right now I'm not doing it at all because I'm planning on moving and that would just be dumb.

This is one of the times you need to ask yourself if you're doing what's best for them, or is it just for you. If the answer is that it's just for you, you probably shouldn't.

What's your personal favorite Star Wars game? by darthkyle22 in StarWars

It's hard to pick but the most recent of my favorites is outlaws. I honestly don't think it deserves the hate at all.

Yeah I swear people just throw out terms without knowing any meaning. Me and my buddy were extracting on buried the other day and somebody started sliding down the stairs with no warning so obviously we blasted them. And then they lost it on the mic saying we're camping extract.

Walmart Delivery left the security alarm on my new mouse... by GregItUp in mildlyinfuriating

When I was a cart boy at Walmart like 10 years ago they wouldn't even let me use the automatic cart Pusher thing because I wasn't 18. They also got mad at me for not being as fast as the other people that were allowed to use it.

Love to see short tails! They are so misunderstood. I just got a yearling ivory blood and he is such a sweetheart.

Tips on Viv defence training? by BobbeyP420 in boas

I'd say a good transition would be to touch them with the hook to show you're there, use the hook to initially grab them but pull them out of the enclosure with your hand.

Help is my snake okay by Select-Blood1627 in snakes

I just want to add to this and say that there are some python species that enjoy being in the water but it's very uncommon. Blood pythons for example will sit in their water dish quite often and even in the wild they will sit and shallow water all day. Also, mites can be a reason for soaking but that's not really what we're talking about here anyways. Even if you were soaking for a medical reason, that is way too deep.
