    tonight on fox: when good mice go bad

    How long can you leave a thawed mouse in with a snake before it's too late to re-freeze should the snake refuse? Keep in mind that where I live it's been in the upper 70's/low 80's lately. I'm feeding Eve a fuzzy every 6-7 days. She was supposed to feed on January 7, but I noticed she was...

    Python anchietae

    Has anyone seen a Python anchietae (Angolan python/Namibian dwarf python) available for sale at any trade shows? I hear they go for several thousand dollars as hatchlings. I want one! I don't have the money for one at the moment, but I'm sure by the time I've saved up some money, they'd be...

    Taiwan beauty snake

    I know at least one of you has one of these. What's its temperament like? I've read that Asian Elaphe imports tend to be heavily parasitized. Does yours have any health problems? Do you consider it a good acquisition? I've always thought they were pretty, but I never really considered...

    just like in the movies...

    I just needed somewhere to vent because none of my friends is picking up. So...about twenty minutes ago, I was outside my apartment, smoking and thinking. And I realized that, after a ton of crap that's happened to me (and a ton of crap that I've inflicted on myself) in my life, I'm finally in...

    Nhl

    Did any of you in the UK go to see the National Hockey League games over there? My roommate and I were really trying to make it to England for a vacation and to watch the Kings-Ducks games, but then I had to go and quit my job. :bang: Oh, well.

    What does your Username mean (or what does it mean to you)? And, for those of you with more unusual names (esp. the ones that are all consonants), how do you pronounce yr Username?

    Eve's got her own feeding issues...

    I was dangling a pink above Eve's head the other night, and she reared up to strike, so I let go, figuring she'd grab it as it fell. Instead, she whipped around to constrict it (I've never seen her do that before), but she just caught a leg and the tail. As the pink was a little bit wet, it...

    the pendulum swings...

    ...for her. She had a perfect shed two nights ago, so I fed her last night (she refused her pinks while blue). But now my problem is she might be *too* wet. Except when she was in her feeding tub, she's been in her humid hide pretty much non-stop for 2-3 days. I know corn snakes can develop...

    Pearls

    I was thumbing through an older edition of Kathy Love's book, and there's this rad pic of a pearl corn. I've never seen this morph mentioned anywhere else, and I've never seen it for sale anywhere online or in stores. Does this morph have a different name now? Did it just get lumped in with...

    I hate the sun!

    I haven't been home all day, but I know the temp where I live peaked somewhere in the low 100's F (ca. 40 C). When I got home at about 7 pm, Eve's viv was at 93 F (33 C). I have both windows in the room open with the ceiling fan and desk fan going at full blast. The air conditioning unit in...

    humidifier

    Has any of you used a humidifier near your vivs to keep up the moisture? Any problems with them? What brand do you use? I'm having a helluva time keeping the moisture up in my vivs. I've lived in a desert almost all my life, but I've never had non-aquatic pets until now, so I never thought...

    Goddess, give me strength!

    I made a visit to one of my local herp stores today on the worst possible day ever. They were in the middle of putting away a new shipment of snakes, and most of them were on my To-Buy-at-Some-Future-Date list. So as of right now, they have: a pair of northern pines, a pair of african house...

    differences among morphs

    Other than the obvious color/pattern differences, are there any significant differences between morphs (excluding hybrids and such)? Do any tend to live longer? Do any get bigger? Are any of them more aggressive/less docile? Are any of them more susceptible to disease? For example, I've...

    Scat

    I've noticed that, the last two times I fed Eve, her last poop before the feed is significantly different from the previous ones (she goes about four or five times between each feed). Her "presents" are usually like what everyone says: bird poop-ish. But the last one is usually a light tan...

    redecorating

    If you significantly change the decor of a snake's viv, do you have treat it like a new purchase (i.e., give the snake a week or so of settling-in time)? I'm thinking of either breaking the 2 large pieces of wood into smaller ones or just buying new wood. Both pieces are just a millimeter or...

    ZooMed ReptiTemp 500R

    ...having with my current thermostat). I know many of you have this particular thermostat. So can one of you tell me? Does it have one piece that goes in the viv and another *separate* piece (no cord attachment) that goes outside and controls the UTH? Or are the two physically connected...

    On-line herp store

    What is your favorite online herp supply store? I'm not looking for mice or snakes. Just herp supplies (thermostats, cage furniture, Novalsan, etc.). I've been burned a lot buying stuff online, so I really try to buy stuff in actual stores, but there are no GOOD herp stores around here. Thanks.

    You know you're becoming addicted when...

    ...you look at prices of things and translate them into snakes. For example, I had a job interview in Downtown LA yesterday, and parking was US$36. There were some cheaper lots about six or seven blocks away, but I was already running late. So I paid the exorbitant fee. The first thing I...

    What was your first snake?

    Corn snakes are great for beginners, but did you all start out with them? Or did you try another kind of snake first?

    mice on the web

    I really hadn't planned on ordering mice from the Internet because I only have one snake, so even if the mice are bit more expensive from physical, non-internet stores, it won't add up all that quickly. But today's feeding day for Eve, and I guess EVERYONE has hungry hatchlings right now. I...
