Re: First time snake owner, looking for help!

After two years of keeping snakes the first theing i do on waking up, coming home, coming back to living room after going to the loo, getting up to get a drink is.......... Check all the snakes vivs. I often catch myself watching them move about and realising that i have missed half of the tv show i was meant to be watching

Re: First time snake owner, looking for help!

We got first one in march 2010 and by about june 2010 we had 7, not added any more recently as money and space dont allow it but most likely will expand our collection in the future at some point

Re: First time snake owner, looking for help!

The first thing i do when i wake up is check all my snakes enclosures, get them fresh water, spot clean any messes they left me, and just stare at them, if they're out and about, lol.

I truly love watching my animals, even if they're just curled up and not moving at that moment.

You mean like the 1.0 BRB, etc, that's how many males and females i have of certain snakes, so if you add my numbers up, i have a grand total of 25 snakes all together
Besides cleaning their poop and Urates (snake pee, aka the white stuff), if a snake has any damp bedding from water, i'll clean that out too.

I have a Kingsnake that poops and pees every other day it seems, after he's had a meal, while all my other snakes will have a few meals before they leave some nice, healthy deposits for me

Re: First time snake owner, looking for help!

Man do you ever stop asking questions ? :-) JK The numbers you would have Corn 0.1 because you have 1 female corn if she was a he it would be corn 1.0 and if you don't know its 0.0.1 as for leaving a mess, they're all different. shedding, my baby's probably going to shed every 4/5 weeks as she grows it'll lessen. Yours maybe 3/4 times a year I'm guessing.
