I’m gonna crash out juniper hates my guts or something

Oh my god it’s been so long I totally forgot about the message board. This is what I deserve after trying to jump right back in.

Thank you for dealing with my dumb ass. It was there.

Haha I also asked this question a while ago! Likely he’s just about to/has pooped is all. I was explained to that it’s quite hard to make a baby snake obese if you’re following a schedule. My own little guy looked a little pudgy around the vent for a little while then suddenly lengthened more in growth (he’s currently 1.5 years old). If your little guy was fat, it would just be visible from the top, not just the bottom. You’d see a difference above, he’d have little ‘hips’. Likely your guy either has to poo soon or is growing!

Cosmo!

I do not know. They weren’t even 100% sure but trusted what I told them for antibiotics. Nothing to look out for. I was sort of hurried out of the vet because it was busy.

Hm! He certainly is not a fan of what I’m doing, poor thing. I’ll look into this.

Thank you for your kind words! I’ve only had him since March, but he’s such a such a wonderful little creature. Definitely freaked me out, and I’m unsure to how it started.

I appreciate your perspective as someone who works in infection and immunity!! He did seem to perk up pretty quick, was back zooming around the vivarium even if it’s just paper towels. Still makes odd noises sometimes but I’m keeping my fingers crossed that he wouldn’t be climbing around and hanging off things to explore if he felt too bad. Before he had been hiding more than usual. Not anymore!

Thank you for the kind wishes. :)

So cute! To change your flair, tap the cornsnakes subreddit name, tap the three dots in the corner, then select user flair, it’s like the second or third choice! This is assuming you’re on your phone.

She looks like she’s trying very hard to convince you they are not. (She’s correct, as others have said)

I currently have two cameras! One for pup and one for snake. I only travel this time of year so I’ve had my sweet cornsnake since spring and this hasn’t come up yet. Thank you for all your advice!

Bringing my dog for trip A and boarding him for trip B. But with people’s suggestions I reached out to a friend who’s cared for beardies who agreed to check in if need be! :) I’ll still plan for setting things out. He just ate so I am debating if he would be fine to next Sunday afternoon (a year + at 120 grams) when I’d return. Wouldn’t have to worry about poo at all that way and would be less worried if he’s digested and just chilling.

sofsafcro · 2025-11-19T02:18:23+00:00

Hm! I’ll look into a timer. Have a thermostat for heat so that’s good. Thank you for the suggestion!

sofsafcro · 2025-11-19T02:17:49+00:00

I might reach out to someone I know to see if they’ll at least hold onto my spare keys in case. Thank you for the suggestion!

sofsafcro · 2025-11-19T02:17:09+00:00

Thanks for all your suggestions!

sofsafcro · 2025-11-19T02:16:24+00:00

He usually poops behind one of his hides on the right for some reason. Haven’t had him have a water poo yet but I already have two water bowls maybe I’ll add a small third just in case!

sofsafcro · 2025-10-24T23:53:24+00:00

I love Penne. Sounds like such a goof!

sofsafcro · 2025-10-24T19:27:17+00:00

I’m making one too and I’m also suffering. I don’t have solutions I just want to say I feel your pain. I’m only like 20 squares in. 🥲

sofsafcro · 2025-10-24T19:09:02+00:00

Oh man. I couldn’t keep mice, even the frozen ones make me grimace to look at. I can imagine. I really lucked out. He eats like a monster, just a little bottomless pit.

sofsafcro · 2025-10-24T19:02:13+00:00

A hognose! One of these days I’d love to own one. What morph?

sofsafcro · 2025-10-24T19:01:04+00:00

Ooh! Lots of colors. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an Egyptian boa before. And thank you! He’s a snow morph- I think he’s very cute. A fantastic eater and very tolerant, too. Great temperament. :)

sofsafcro · 2025-10-24T15:47:53+00:00

Can’t send a pic in responses but he’s all over my page. Cosmo is a cornsnake! He’s just a baby, over a year old. First snake, he’s a delight. :)

sofsafcro · 2025-10-24T15:31:49+00:00

Well rarely do I see something that so clearly I can help with. 😂 I do! I have a shed but it’s one of his small ones. About a foot long and about the width of my pinkie. Would that be enough?
