Re: Eye Issue

He's 5 now. I suppose it could be a cataract, I just figured a cataract wouldn't appear so suddenly. Thanks for the reply.

Eye Issue

Been a while since I posted anything, mostly because the snakes are doing well. However, after his last shed, I noticed Dr. Coil has a small obstruction in the center of his right eye (see below for...

Re: New Snake and Old

Thanks Clockwerk and El Ziggy.

Enjoy seeing the differences in behavior between these two species. Rather than start a new thread I thought I'd just tack this on here. I knew grey ratsnakes...

New Snake and Old

Been a while since I've posted, though I still do check on here occasionally to see pictures. Anyway, though I wasn't really looking for another snake, one found me instead, so meet Catfood (I know...

Re: Introducing Dr. Coil

Time for some updated pictures. He's a bit over 3 ft long now, and always entertaining to watch.

Re: A question of orientation.

Can't say I've seen anything approaching this, though I don't think racers have the same flexibility in their jaw as many other species of snake. I'm not sure he could even if he tried, and it would...

Re: A question of orientation.

Very interesting! Especially your story about latching onto the head and moving the "wrong" way. Seems so counterproductive, but I guess it all ends up in the right place one way or another. ...

A question of orientation.

Today was feeding day, and while watching my snake eat I became curious. So my questions aren't all that serious, just wondering if anybody had some insight. I generally try to get my snake to...

Re: racer feeding issues

Just wanted to update this in case anyone else had similar issues. After a few feedings with pinkies with no problems, I fed him a fuzzy this week from a new batch and everything went smoothly. So...

Re: racer feeding issues

Thanks, I'll give it a try. Probably go with pinkies the next meal just for my own fear of him regurgitating two meals in a row and going for a while without food, but will report back after trying...

racer feeding issues

Been having some issues with Dr. Coil's (1 year old Racer) feeding and think I have it under control, but wanted to get some feedback to make sure I'm not screwing anything up.

The issue: At...

Re: Introducing Dr. Coil

Thanks!



Good to know he has that ability.



That should be an awesome addition to your ever growing collection. Good luck with the name, though if you think Dr. Coil is catchy, might I...

Re: Introducing Dr. Coil

Another general update to my pictures. Dr. Coil is doing well, was concerned when he stopped eating in November, but has started again this month. Figured it was due to seasonal feeding patterns.

Re: Seasonal change in feeding behavior?

Appreciate the info and help. It sounds like I should expect him to eat less, should feed less frequently, keep an eye on his weight and make sure he comes out to drink. Great info. Thanks.

Seasonal change in feeding behavior?

Just wanted to get some opinions in order to be prepared. The situation, my racer starting about 1-1.5 months ago has started to eat less and even more recently refused to eat (only a little over a...

Re: September Photo Contest

Haha! It's true, I could probably start a Field Herping thread with just the animals coming into the office. In fact, I pretty sure there's something big hiding somewhere in there based on the poop...

Re: Introducing Dr. Coil

Thanks!



He's still a pretty nervous snake. To be honest, I rarely take him out of his enclosure, only when I clean it. He doesn't bite, but he just doesn't seem to like it very much. If...
