I got her from craigslist. the guy bought it for his 5 yr old son but he didnt want her. she is a beautiful snake, but cannot be bred she has a kink in her tail. only 1 imperfection, but she is still beautiful! i love her so much already.

She is beautiful! Congrats on your new BRB!

04-08-12, 05:44 PM
thanks! she hissed at me once, when i had set her on the carpet and went to pick her up. she just loves to crawl on me! my fiance doesnt like snakes so i'm glad he let me get her, i had to persuade him.

also, he was selling her for $150, but i talked him down to $125 because of distance. she came with her 40 gal breeder tank, frog moss, i think some wood chips, 11 frozen mice instead of dozen (she was just fed) heat lamp, heat pad, hiding rock and water dish.

Don't wanna be a buzzkill or anything, congratulations but you should really let her settle in for at least a week, best case scenario until she's eating regularly.
I know it can be hard, having done it 4 times myself, but it really is essential.

You should get her another hide that can be on her warm side. Both my snakes spend majority of their time in their hide on the warm side of the tank.

i've already got 2 fish, a goldfish from the fair 2-1/2 years ago(Stev-O), a plecostomus 1 year old(John Cena), 2 guinea pigs white Short Hair 3months old(Ajani), abyssinian 2months old(Gideon), and now Amelia Mae(: this is my last pet, i swear!(i tell my fiance)

But still get another hide, like a half log, for her warm side.

Even though he probably knows you will be asking to get another one soon.
Jazzmyne
04-08-12, 07:28 PM
and i will get another hide. should it be like her rock or a small plastic one?
GarterPython
04-08-12, 07:28 PM
You should add another hide to the other side of your tank so that he can choose between the cold side and the hot side.
GarterPython

I keep typing at the exact same time as you!
Jazzmyne
04-08-12, 07:30 PM
Even though he probably knows you will be asking to get another one soon. i probably will! boas and pythons were the one thing i have always wanted! i'll probably get a BP because Amelia seems so rare to find and all that's mostly on CL is BP and carpet pythons. there was one on CL, the carpet python, but didnt know what it was till i checked out this site..

Do you have an undertank heater also? I'd recommend getting one. I don't think the lamp is that ideal I only use it because my room stays cold most of the time so sometimes I need a little extra heat.
Trollbie

The half logs work great in my opinion. I push it against a plastic plant so that the snake feels more secure
Jazzmyne
04-08-12, 07:34 PM
Yeah i have an undertank heater.
Jazzmyne
04-08-12, 07:35 PM
its underneath where her rock is. i have plastic/vinyl vines could i put that in her tank?

I don't see why not. Just wash them with soap and warm water, rinse them well, and it should be good.

Ok. Jeez all i wanna do is hold her all day, but i'm letting her alone for a while. Earlier she wrapper around my arm and it felt like i was getting my blood pressure checked! Then she wanted to try and crawl up the lamp that was next me and she pinned my arm against the lamp. She's so silly. :D

It definitely sucks. My Milk was in shed for a week and a half so it sucked not being able to hold her that long. And you shouldn't handle for 48hrs after feeding. That sucks too. But it's best for the snake and I know you want to keep her healthy and happy :)

She just finished shedding about a day or two ago, the guy told me when i picked her up. she still has some shed over her eyes though. i gotta buy a bigger spray bottle though i dont really know where to get one. i got one that's a travel size from walmart. but its not enough to mist her tank, i can already tell.

CVS? Or you could get one at PetsMart/Petco. I'm sure Target and Walmart have big ones too. Did you check the gardening section at Walmart?

Is that a tape on thermometer? You should get a temperature gun and a good hygrometer. And you should get a thermostat too.
Amazon.com: Hydrofarm MTPRTC Digital Thermostat For Heat Mats: Patio, Lawn & Garden (http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-MTPRTC-Digital-Thermostat-Heat/dp/B000NZZG3S/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1333936889&sr=1-1-catcorr)
I blew so much money on my snakes, but it's all worth it.
Jazzmyne
04-08-12, 08:06 PM
Yeah i think it is. its at 77F now. and i plan on buying one, and more stuff for Amelia, just broke right now from purchasing her but it was worth it.
me and my fiance got in an argument of where to put her... he wanted to put her in the laundry room and i said no i want her where people can see her not hidden and stashed in the laundry room! so when we brought her in we put her right next to the stairs and thats where she'll stay! all the other animals aren't hidden, why should she be!? lol.
