problems

Have reached a crossroads with one of my garter snakes so thought I would ask for advice. General history of Geni: Captive bred 6 months when purchased Never been a great eater (had to dig up worms to start with) Bought a second who lives with her (no problems & big eater) Geni escaped at...

OK, so I have a pair of yellow sliders which I've had for some 5-6 years now and keep in a Vision 260 tank (260 litres) with an Eheim II external pump. When they were smaller I had a pair of turtle docks for them to sun themselves on, UV light (10 hours a day on a timer) and all seemed well...

Hi, so i was going to write a post asking for help in getting my Western Hognose to feed as he hasn't done so in over two months and he has lost 15% of his body mass. He ate once a couple of days after he arrived and hadn't since. Until Now!:2thumb: I had just signed up to the forum and started...

Hi everyone~ Well I knew my baby was close to shedding, so I gave him a water bowl big enough for him to soak in. He must have shed wednesday or this morning while I was at my boyfriends. Anyway when I got home my face lit up as I saw the shed in his viv, well when I pulled it out I was...

My albino cornsnake is about two years old now and normally sheds, eats and poops regularly but it has been months since he's last shed and I'm starting to get a little worried about him. He is still active but has his quiet moments but during this last month he has started to go really pale and...

Today I had one of my two Leopard Geckos, Amber at the vets today. This was because both of her eyes had been cloudy and kept shut for around a dozen days since we got back from holiday. At the appointment, it was clear that the cloudy parts were shed skin etc. However, on one of the eyes, all...

Hi all I don't know if anyone's done this but I was wondering what royal/ball python morphs have breeding problems. I nearly bought a female desert unknowingly that they don't ever lay fertile eggs or die when bred, which got me thinking, what other morphs have problems?

Hi I'm new to owning snakes and I've had my corn snake about 4 months now, he fed fine for the first 6 weeks, a fuzzy every 8ish days, then suddenly when through a period where he refused food for a 3 weeks. He ate for a few after that but since he has been really fussy with food, won't eat...

Hi guys, I recently got my hands on a new ceramic heater for my viv, set it up today and noticed that it was smoking quite a bit. It wasn't the bulb that was smoking it was the screw fit that connects the bulb to the fitting. (I could be wrong but thats where the smoke looked like it was...

Hi, sorry we are new users so forgive us if a little ropey! Calling all expert help for our smallest AFT. Basically 2 weeks ago we brought 2 AFTs one supposedly a male (although we're not 100% sure) & a female. The people we adopted them off didn't really seem as if they knew what they were...

My gecko has a lump near the base of one of her back legs. I had noticed a sore a couple weeks ago and I researched until I came across someone saying it could've been from the Repti Carpet I had, so I switched the substrate to the coco fiber and completely cleaned the tank. Just today I saw...

Well after getting rid of those pesky worms, the poop returned to normal for a bit I switched over to a higher quality wet food (she was having supermarket own brand) I miixed it 50-50 with the store stuff (I always bulk her food with kitten kibble as well) and she's back to runny poop. I...

I've had him for 2 months already, he is 3 months old and about 25 cm long. Up to 2 days ago, feeding time was like christmas for him and he crawled up my arm to grab crickets (dusted). He ate anywhere between 6 and 20 a day depending on their size. I haven't really fed him anything else because...

Hi Guys, Been looking around trying to find some advice but can't seem to find anything? I have a male normal ball python who I have had for 2 weeks now. He had his first feed with me on the 15th Sept struck fed and went down straight away. I went to feed him yesterday 22nd Sept he struck at...

Hi Everyone, I came across this table today while searching online for more information on which royal python morphs can have issues: OWALReptiles - Issues I just wondered what people thought of it, whether there are any they would add, etc. I'm sure I read somewhere once that there was...

Hi all, I've got a bit of a health concern with my Honduran milk snake [unsexed, but think possibly female]. There are a few pieces, not sure if they're connected: 1) The first thing we noticed was a small lump just past half way down the body. It feels like there may be something sharp...

My corn snake shed about 5 days ago, and I noticed that there was about an inch left on her tail. Two days later I put her in a moist tub (loo roll) and most of it came off but there was still about half an inch left. Earlier today I put her in a moist tub again for the whole day and she still...
