    Sick snake!

    I came home and found Blaise at the front of his cage. He didn't seem to be responding much to me, so I took him out. He's really lethargic. I put him in a container with some lukewarm water, thinking he might be cold, but...he's still lethargic. He's just...floating. He moves his head...

    Blaise, my snow coral

    Blaise finally got out of bed last night after sleeping for more than 3 weeks. So I have some photos! They're still awful, but they're better than a blurry snake head inside a plastic log. I guess. He likes his hammock!

    Regurge...but I haven't fed him

    I found what looks like a regurge in Blaise's viv, except I haven't fed him. :shrugs: He got here Tuesday morning, and I've left him alone (minus looking in at him and checking temperatures). I looked in just now and saw this slimy thing on the base of his fake plant. It appears to be a small...

    Severus died

    I left my cat and snake with pet sitters while I was away at a conference. I got a call Saturday afternoon to say the snake had passed away. :( So...I don't know what to do next. I don't know the cause of death. It was probably my fault somewhere.

    Help

    Oh god...I came home. Severus is stuck to duct tape. HELP.

    Hanging out

    I know these aren't the world's most exciting shots, but this is the first time (AFAIK) that Severus has ever climbed this high! He's never been higher than his fake plant. And tonight, I found him on the probe wire. :)

    Hide/sleeping

    Severus seems to like one viv better. I tried switching them today to see if he prefers the hide or the temperature, and he's still in the hide. I mean, I guess he knows where he needs to be, but...it's odd that he's always there. I checked the temps the other day--82 warm and 74 cold, I think...

    Severus is here!

    Severus showed up at my door about an hour ago. I've been trying to get pictures, but he's a bit camera-shy. I missed the best shot--when he yawned. My cat still hasn't noticed him. Anyway, he's an Abbott's Okeetee, from Don.

    How long?

    I'm getting my snake next week! :) Anyway, I figured I'd hook everything up and make sure it'll work right before he arrives. How long does a heating pad take to heat the viv? Mine's been plugged in for maybe 4 hours now. At one point, I pulled it out and touched it, and it was warm, but the...

    Cat-proofing

    I was just curious what the best way is to cat-proof the viv. I don't yet have the snake, but the cat has jumped up onto the lid a few times. I chase her off when I see her, but I can't be there all the time. Of course, I could spray her when I see it, but to be honest, she doesn't seem to...

    Dumb question :)

    Something's been nagging at me... A lot of people suggest feeding twice a week, at least for a baby snake. But then they say not to handle it for 48 hours afterwards. By my calculations (and I'm bad at math, I admit), that leaves one day a week to handle the snake... Is that right, or am I...

    New set-up

    I just returned from Petsmart with a bevy of supplies. I wanted to see if you all approved of what I got. :) I don't have the snake yet, so now is the perfect time to make bad decisions if I'm going to make them. I picked up an Exo-Terra aquarium with a mesh top and sliding front doors. It's...

    New member here

    Hi. I just joined (duh). I actually don't have a snake yet, but I plan to, so I'm hanging around snake sites to get some information and stuff. I've read through a number of threads here and on another forum, on corns and other species, and I think I've got a pretty good feel for the "snake...
