One of my snakes shed last week. It was a successful shed for the most part, but one patch wouldn't come off and it's right on the top of her head, so she won't let me get near it to help her. I can handle her all day, but she does not like it when I get close to her head. (Her eye caps did come...

I've checked out the foodsaver, rival, sealameal models, as well as the discontinued models like the handivac. All of them seem to have a good share of customer complaints. Does anybody use any of these or other models that would be practical and inexpensive for sealing frozen mice?

I have searched for and read through several threads on different substrates, but has anyone ever used aspen shavings that were too dusty? I bought a huge bag of "Living World" aspen shavings (more like chips/shavings) and at the bottom of the tank, when I move the shavings away, is aspen dust...

...Or hope the corns can digest w/ ambient temp of 71*F? I measured the temps on the glass above the Zoo Med UTH's and they were getting 120-130*F. So I unplugged them and ordered some rheostats. Today should be feeding day for a couple of the 5 month old corns, but I'm wondering if I should...

And yes, I've already ordered a rheostat. In the meantime, will the corn be in any real danger if he decides to rub his nose on the crack? The crack is at the bottom of the tank, under the aspen, and I can barely feel the crack with my fingers when I rub them across. I seriously doubt it could...

I purchased a used 10 gallon w/ lid and didn't even realize until much later that it had been used for rats or mice. I bleached it, washed it, bleached it, washed it, cleaned it w/ zoo med cleaner, washed it, filled it w/ aspen shavings, and let it sit for 2 days now. But every time I lean over...

I've read stories about UTH's overheating and being fire hazards. Is there a thermostat that can control 3 different heat mats at the same time? I have a 16w Zoo Med, a 8w Zoo Med, and a 7w Fluker heat mat. So I guess they're all different powers. Would that be hard to get them all synchronized...

I've searched for similar threads, but can't find anything addressing this questing. I sometimes get off of work late and my corn is in my office. So after it has been dark for several hours, I turn on the room lights (usually just turn on my desk lamp), but I'm wondering if this will affect the...

My 4.5 month old corn was just promoted from 2 pinkies to 1 fuzzy mouse today -- the bulge in his belly was at least 1.5x the size of his widest normal girth. He took the meal nicely, in about 5 minutes. Then I let him stay in the feeding tub for several more minutes before attempting to...

I watched a video a while back that suggested placing your snake in a tub of water, and then lowering your arm into the water so that it is the snake's only route out. In the demonstration, it seemed to work pretty well. Does anyone have any other advice on how to develop a trusting relationship...

Hey, guys. Long-time lurker here.... His temps are low to mid 70's on the cool side and low 80's on the warm side. He's only 4 months old and around a 1.5 feet long. He just shed a few days ago and I fed him yesterday. But last night, around 9 pm, my wife was vacuuming a room that is about 20...
