  1. Snakes
    I got my BP about 2 months ago and he’s been settling in and eating well. I feed on Sunday evenings and handle him during the day beforehand. When I put him back in the viv he usually stays out of the hides and seems to search around (I’ve been assuming he’s figured out the feeding routine and...

    Hello, new to this forum. I have a unique situation that I would greatly appreciate some advice on. It's been my dream to own a boa constrictor one day, however I live on a remote offshore island without a reliable postal service. There's no such thing as 24hr delivery over here due to...

    I can’t tell for sure if he was bit by the cricket. But As I was feeding him I put the cricket in his bowl and it jumped out and ran across his back then kind of hid under him it was underneath his tail and either went in his tail or bit him on his tail but either way it made him really jump...

    Hey folks, I own a 10 year old, male corn snake who hasn't eaten at all this year and continues to be uninterested in food. He usually doesn't eat for 3-4 months over winter but nothing of this length. I have tried multiple sizes of rats, but none of them seem to interest him. Despite this, he...

    So beanie gets fed every four days. Today was a feed fay so since I haven’t gave mealworms in a while I decided to. He didn’t take them. I tried with the pupae and beetles, he also didn’t take them. Then I tried with the locusts and he didn’t eat any of them either. Last time he was difficult...

    Hi, I got him in December 22, ate fine had 2 med mice. He was due a meal when I got him. But since then he hasn't eaten, I've tried once a week on large mice or rat pups. Temp ranges from 23-30c is that to hot? To cold? He has a light aswell when that's on temp is higher, so I only put that...

    Don’t worry, he’s ok, he’s perfectly healthy, but his food preferences are so weird. I have NEVER seen a lizard that DOESN’T like crickets. He needs a lot of convincing to even look at the cricket. He just doesn't like them. He likes everything else, caterpillars, roaches, mealworms, and flies...

    Hey, some of my mealworms have turned into beetles. I tried to prevent it by feeding him the pupae but inevitably some hid under the substrate and became beetles. I just wanna know if he can eat them or if I should shove em in a diff tub and only feed him the worms

    I have a 2 year old Crested Gecko that was given to me by a friend. He would only feed him mealworms and occasionally Pangea. Since I’ve owned him I’ve changed his diet to include Repashy, crickets, and Dubias. Unfortunately, he is very picky. He barely licks any of the CGD, and the only time...

    I'm a first time snake owner, and I'm getting worried about my snake. She's a three year old corn snake which I purchased from a breeder. Yesterday, I warmed up her mouse and tried to feed her. She recognized it and struck it with interest, but missed her strike. When I put it down so she would...

    Hey so I have a 10 month old I believe male. Recently I changed his feeding to every 2 days, and I gave him a moist hide. I’m 90% sure he’s shedding today as he shed about the same time last month, and he’s been in the moist hide since early this morning (which is very unusual, he’s usually...

    Just need a bit of advice on this. I have a roughly 9 month leopard gecko called Beanie. He’s adorable and lazy. But I need to know, how often should I feed him? He eats locusts, and I saw one thing saying every day, one saying every 2 days and another saying twice a week. I’m going the every 2...

    Hi all- new snake owner here, trying to do my best. I got a rhino rat snake about a month and a half ago. Set her up in a tank with a warm side about 78-82 degrees although she tends to spend most of her time in the water bowl on the cool side. Her first two feedings with frozen/thawed mice went...

    So I have a few Surinam cockroaches inside a container being gut loaded, I’ve tried a few in the past, but he really doesn’t seem to like them. He eats almost everything else except these roaches. It’s really unfortunate because it’s very easy to come by these roaches. So, any ideas on how to...

    Hey, I'm looking for advice on if this is an appropriate sized mouse (fuzzy) for a Kenyan sand boa. She seems to be ok but I want to make sure its the right size for her, a pictures attached for size. cheers!
  17. New Male Indian Feeding

    When feeding newly acquired snakes I take feeding them easy until I get to know them, this male is a bit on the thin side for me this side of the breeding season so I'm feeding weekly medium sized rabbit's and pheasants until he stops feeding then sending the next three months chasing females...

    Hello, I am new to these forums and I was looking for some advice. I got a baby corn snake about 2 months ago and she doesn't seem to be growing. I am unsure how old she is but she seems to be somewhere from 3 to 5 months. She weighs about 11 grams and was 8 grams when I got her. I have been...

    Hi all...first time reptile owner here. I got my hognose 2 weeks ago, and after a couple of days he figured out how to burrow in the bioactive substrate I had set up. At its deepest there's about 6 inches of it, so he basically can vanish off the face of the earth once he learned where the glass...

    So i recently bought 5 dune geckos (Stenodactylus Sthenodactylus) and was wondering what is the best method of feeding a group in order to make sure that they are all eating. I have seen 3 of the 5 eat but have yet to see the other two eat although I have only had them one day so was wondering...
