Hi! I just finally moved into my apartment and got everything set up. Eden and Gahenna ( my sand boa) got all settled in and they began to be active at night again and get handled. Well, my fiancee underestimated the strength of a curious 4 foot ( yeah, Eden grew almost 2 feet since I talked to...

I'm catching my friend's strep throat. Should I or should I not continue to handle Eden or wait for the bug to go away?

I had been reading previous posts on incomplete sheds where the eye caps or end of tail did not come off... well, when Eden shed, the head and tail shed flawlessly, but there were big tears in the shed skin in the middle on the underside... was this lack of humidity or what?

Okay, well in the name forum, some of you mentioned that you played various pen and paper or live action RPGs. And since it managed to get the entire thread off topic, it might be nice to move it all here... So what do you play and how often?

Well, Eden's out growing his/her viv and I will have a 10 gallon free which means a.) I get Eden sexed and pick out a corn of the opposite sex to go with my odd-looking little ghost ( I gotta get pics) or... I finally get a sand boa. I realized that I really wanted to own snakes when I held a...

When commenting to a worker at superpet that their snakes were super active and really healthy and that mine was very healthy but hid quite a bit, they asked me hide questions and stuff ( my cage has three different hides in different areas of the tank that are different shapes and dimensions)...

As some of you know, a month ago I was sold a 4 month-old ruby-eyed ghost, but wasn't able to go and pick it up and check it out. It gets home, two weeks later I hold it and have a good look... it has blue eyes and is close if not at two feet. I'm not even sure 4 month-olds should even be that...

Well, over the last weeks I've been trying to perfect the whole vivarium temperature thing and have pretty much got it, although it still goes up and down a few degrees with the room. Well, today I got it at a stable temp for about 7 hours YAY ME... I go to switch my bulbs and... MY NIGHT ONE...

Okay, I have water in my cage all day every day, changed often. But I'm not sure if Eden has ever drank from his dish. I've had the flat rock kind but changed to an old butter container so that if he wanted to he could bathe... There's always less water every time I look but it could just be the...

Okay, I live with 5 other people in this little house as roommates. Unfortunately 3 of them hate me with a burning passion because I don't like to be ordered around and won't be. Well, one of my roommates, Laurie, who actually likes me told me that Erica and Mike ( two of the ones who don't)...

Well, it's been two weeks and I handled my snake for the first time! You know, without it being a necessity (ie, cage transfer and cleaning). Wow. Eden's gorgeous. I didn't realize how shiny and iridencent it's scales were... unfortunately, I was so cought up with the way it moved that I didn't...

Well, today was going to be the day I picked up Eden for the first time to feed her. Well, I managed to scare the hell out of it and not to get ahold it. So should I just place food in or what?

Should coming over to the glass and looking at my snake, without touching the glass, bother it? It's only been living here for 3 days

Hello! I just wanted to ask a question about racking systems because I plan on making herpetoculture a hobby and those racks looked like a good idea.... except for one thing. THE CAGES ARE SO TINY IN MOST!!!! Can a snake actually be happy in something the size of a Tim Horton's takeoutbox? What...

I have just bought a ghost corn snake two days ago. It's 4 months old and housed in a ten gallon aquarium. My room, thanks to selfish and stupid roommates is on average 60 degrees fahrenheit and dark ( stupid basement), lacking windows. I am heating the tank with a 75 watt heating bulb and a 75...
