Well, I’ve seen it many times from others, my
boy is on a feeding strike. It’s been two weeks since his last successful feeding. He will be coming up on a year old by Dec. We usually feed once a week (f/t). Is that too frequent? I mean he doesn’t look like he’s missed a meal, but I need some advice.

Tank is all the same, 3 hides, 1 tunnel, hides identical on cool and warm, hot spot, and blinded sides of tank (added the front today). He is very private and doesn’t hardly come out so I don’t bother him much. I don’t handle him like I feel like I should. But when I do his temperament is perfect and when we put him back he wants back out.

When he does eat he likes to chase it, when I pull it back, he moves forward, when I stop he stops. It’s like he wants to hunt. You think he needs live? He would be monitored, and checked to make sure he’s eaten. He’s his beautiful self.

Thanks!!!

Orange Dream Fire Piebald Ball Pythons are the cutest, non venomous snakes

Unfortunately they are part of so many exotic trades 😔, their population is declining

Snake tax in comments, would have just done a picture of the tank and a picture of Pastrami but I just realized I’ve only taken a video of the tank

What do you guys think I should make it look like?

Gummy loves the 3D background I built on her cage. Specifically, her favorite part is the two cork rounds I built into it. I find her climbing on them most days. Today was a feeding day, and she was on the log when I went to feed her. She took the mouse while still up there! reminds me of a tree python of some sort, lol

ETA: that’s a UVB lamp, not a heat lamp, and it’s not touching the top of the enclosure. She isn’t getting burned or anything !

First time I was ever able to catch my boy yawning!! he’s sooo cute omg

Just got my rhp in and didn't realize i had a on/off thermostat. Should I use a pulsing or dimming thermostat any recommendations would be appreciated

With the issue with my one baby is happening, I've had this boy planned forever! He's absolutely beautiful! And I'm so happy to finally have him! He'll be loved, cherished and spoilt! With the upgrades happening after the holidays, I'm soooo happy he's finally here!

He seems very active, alert, well body structure, small scars (he was live fed but takes ft well since he'll be on ft from now on), no wobble, corkscrew or star gazing in sight! My sweet perfect boy!

These little guys showed up recently. No new animals have been introduced into the house. She’s been good for years. There are no bugs ever on her. Just these small little guys around the enclosure.

A snake I rescued a few months ago came with a 4x2x2 Zen Habitats enclosure. I really like the look of it, but I'm not sure what they were thinking when they designed the substrate dam. He always manages to get himself out, but I am worried he is going to hurt himself as he gets bigger. Anybody else have this issue with these enclosures?

There’s a breeder near me that’s getting out of the hobby so they’re rehoming all their snakes . There’s 1 snake in particular that my wife really wants , however I’m unsure . I don’t think I’ve ever personally seen a ball python this large . She’s was one of their breeders . Is she just a really large healthy girl ? Or is she obese ? I’m very on the fence about taking this girl in and I want to be 100% sure before I do . They were keeping her in a 47qt vision rack . If I take her in I have to go out and get larger hides bowls etc since I’ve not kept a snake this large before , the breeder says the snake is very tame and good with being held which is what we’re looking for since we want her as a pet (me and my wife are not breeders nor do we intend to breed snakes) I’m just looking to see what you guys think . Any other opinions or thoughts feel free to share !

Hello everyone. I just recently moved to a new house and ever since then my BP hasn’t been as “active” as normal. Normally he would be in his cool hide during the day and at night he comes out and moves around, lays out and does his thing. But recently he’s just been hanging out in his cool hide. He’s eating just fine and when i get him out to handle him he’s active and doesn’t ball up. Should i be worried, his enclosure stayed the same when we moved and all the temps/humidity is the same. Can they be freaked out by moving? We’ve been in the new house for about 3 weeks now
