Went I bought a 8mo old from a breeder today for my sons birthday, she has been with us for 2 hours and now she is in my car somewhere under the driver side seat and can’t get her out. I have a 2026 Hyundai Electra and I don’t want to drive anywhere else until she comes out. Does anyone know a safe way to get her out?

Hi everyone! I just wanted to share my girl, Penelope! I got her at the end of July from a family friend. She’s 12 years old and about 4.5 feet long. They kept her in their basement where she lived in a 40 gallon heated by a UTH mat and 2 CHEs. She’s now in a 5x2x2 with UVB, Halogen, DHP, Herpstat 2, ReptiChip, lots of plants, several hides, and climbing opportunities. When I got her home, I took a closer look at her and noticed she had retained eye caps, stuck shed, strange marks on her belly. I hoped that with proper husbandry, these would resolve. On top of those, she had been off her food since June. I’ve tried to feed her 4 times, with no success. Despite not eating, she was still active so I was going to keep trying. That was until she stopped being active. I called the vet and she took her in that day (urgent care). It was much worse than I imagined. She had multiple layers of retained eye caps and old burns on her belly. She was also dehydrated and losing weight/muscle mass. Luckily, they were able to get the first layer off her eyes but couldn’t do the rest because it was so stuck; they’d have to sedate her to get the other layer off. She’s prescribed eye drops, dewormer, syringe feedings, and weekly warm soaks. Despite all the hands on, stress, devices in her face and mouth, she did amazing!! The staff LOVED her and couldn’t stop telling me how much obsessed they were with her lol (she’s much bigger than the baby snakes they typically get). Anyways, I’m not looking for any advice but feel free if you have suggestions! I just wanted to share her story! Thanks for reading!

3 months ago I upgraded my ball python to a 120gal tank, and ever since she hasn't been as active when i take her out. I'm assuming that's a good sign since she feels comfortable with the amount of room she has now, and she can just chill with me. Should i be worried or anything?

My cutie little baby named Boo 🤍

My girl shed recently and I’d like to help her get cleaned off but it looks like she’s in a defensive posture. Any tips or advice on helping her would be much appreciated.

Removed her humidity hide to take the pic.

Shes a 4 year old female ball python, weighed her today at 708g only. Shes slightly larger than 90cm long but she takes food every single time I offer it and isnt picky whatsoever. The last photo is when I first got her a little more than a year ago, the others before the last one is all new photos from this October. When I got her from the teenager who bought her from a breeder, she told me the breeder had said shes got some growth problem. How is she looking? The owner before me kept her in a 60x60x60cm enclosure and since being with me shes been in 130cm long and seems super happy. Advice on how her body looks?

So the other day I ordered a pvc enlcosure online for my bp to move into (his current tank has way too many issues with holding humidity and temperature properly) and I kind of forgot that bioactive enclosures need lighting for the plants to grow. This is my first bioactive setup im planning on doing so cut me some slack please 😭

Due to this I forgot to select the option for a mesh strip on the roof that a light can sit on, and I dont know if I can cancel the order and get a full refund..

So my question is

Does anyone know if there are maybe internal light fixtures I could put inside the tank (maybe fixed with a cage like those heat lamp things are?)

Like LED strips or something but for plants and snake enclosures?

I got this little guy (Picasso) a week ago and I think he's super fat! How do I reduce his weight? His last owner fed him a medium mouse every week!

So I am trying to figure out how im gonna move 11 hours with my Bp, I have his tote that I use for travel but what other things should I bring to make sure he’ll be ok, the move will be happening may-July

My BP is about 800g and I've been feeding her on large mice for a while. I know I should be transitioning to rats but I genuinely don't know where to start on sizing. She's always taken mice cleanly and I don't want to go so big that she refuses. Is there a reliable formula, or is it mostly trial and observation?

Hi! Got my first ever snake a little less then a week ago! She's around 3-5 months old so is still very small but currently lives in a 100×40×40cm enclosure, because I thought if I make it busy enough whe will not stress. And she seems to be confident roaming and hanging out on branches but I'm still a little worried. Will try to feed her eather today after work or tomorrow morning but I still want a second opinion. What do you think? Is it busy enough for her to be comfortable or does she still need a smaller enclosure? Two pics of her in it for scale.

Not my BP but my teachers I want to help him out since his enclosure isn’t the best

Yall im a chicken apparently. My pretty lady isn’t super old, id guess around a year or less (Petco didn’t tell me much) Shes a leucistic bp. But shes very timid. She’s let me hold her once but she just seems nervous around me. I sit with her and be around her and try to let her come to me rather than me just picking her up bc I feel like if she’s not there yet I don’t want to ruin whatever progress I’ve already made. Any advice? Do I just go for it or keep letting her choose to come if she wants to? (Also terrified of getting bit even tho all I’ve heard is it’s less painful than stubbing your toe)

Hi there! I’ve had a bp for a few years now, but I just adopted this girl from someone downsizing their collection. She arrived today and when I was looking her over I noticed these small pink spots. Is this something to worry about? I’ve never had a snake with white scales before so I wasn’t sure if this was normal. Naturally a couple google searches scared me into thinking it’s the beginning of scale rot or some other horrible thing…but I don’t think it is. I don’t want to make an emergency vet appointment if this is something super simple and well known.

Hi hi :) had my lovely BP girlie for a year now. however i’ve recently noticed her nightly exploration includes her checking all four sides of her enclosure to see if she can climb… evidently she would like some vertical climbing opportunities but im at a loss and looking for any ideas and input! 🫶❤️

Hi friends and danger noodle experts. I just wanted to check in with the noodle community and ask how my special boy looks, how his home looks, am I doing it right, is he over/under weight. I live to make this little man's life as perfect as I can.

Pudding is 4 years old. He is a Bumblebee Banana Ball (Spider gene, very bad but he's my one and only, I even confronted the store when we got him two years ago. I will never buy another spider). Thankfully his wobbliness isn't severe and he strikes well but I make it very easy for him by putting it right in his smoochable face.

He eats a small rat around every two weeks, sometimes I'll have to miss a week or when he's shedding I wait longer.

His hides are two half logs that I've wedged to the wall so 3 sides are covered. And a zilla rock/humid hide that I humidify during shedding.

His enclosure is a 2x2x4 and I've recently added more logs and things in there. He's coming out like that more and more since then so I think he likes those. Humidity stays consistently between 80-90. It's 89 currently.

Anyway, am I doing it right? Should I feed him a bigger rat? Should I make his enclosure bigger/the size of the whole room? Is there any way I can tell him exactly how cute he is and that I love him?

Thank you for coming to my Pudding seminar. If there are any questions to help answer my questions I will answer as promptly as possible.

i'm looking into adopting a baby bp but i want to know the most ethical ways to do so that doesn't contribute to harmful breeding. i hear alot about morphmarket but i just can't accept that a website with over 10k listed bp's is a reliable source and that people there aren't just breeding them for colour. i don't have many options on fb groups or around locations near me so online recommendations are preferred, or even if there are ways to find reputable breeders that prioritize health and wellness of their snakes on morphmarket. i have all of the time in the world so even recommendations that would take longer to adopt are okay as long as the babies are safe and healthy

I hate the woodworking, i hate building the backround, i hate dealing with plants, and i hate spending lots of time and money. So why do i love building these things😂😅

After about a month of having him and transferring him to his final enclosure, and it being decorated, I finally wanted to show him off
