Re: Herp Lingo :)

RTB = red-tailed boa (usually used when one isn't sure if it's pure Bcc or Bci).
ETB = emerald tree boa
wormie = baby snake
snapperhead = slang term for blood/short-tailed pythons (they like to bite, lol)
pipping = when the baby snake slits the egg to emerge
lock = breeding event, refers to the tails "locked" together with insertion

I can't think of anything else right now. lol

Re: Herp Lingo :)

Hey Wayne just wondering do you think the improved list could be placed on the first page? I feel it would make it more readily accessible

Husbandry is the term used to describe care.

Feeding, housing, maintenance all are parts of husbandry.
