Re: Baby Royal advice please

Yes, a proper diurnal cycle is important, but so is peace and quiet. A closet is a legitimate choice for people who do not have a room to isolate a snake in. Most closets I've had have had lights,...

Re: Baby Royal advice please

Set snake up in a warm, dark, quiet room. No tv, no windows, no cats, etc. Closets work great for this. Don't worry about too much darkness, they're nocturnal, they won't mind.

Make sure your...

Re: Royal Feeding frequencey

Feeding a royal python depends on several factors.

Re: Baby Royal advice please

It's completely normal behavior for a ball python to spend hours, or even days exploring. This isn't a sign of hunger, as other people have said, it's merely them exploring their new home. It'll...

Re: First time Royal owner !!

Most of my snakes will eat anywhere, but each of my 4 ball pythons has at least one idiosyncrasy when it comes to eating. I agree with NennaMeercat, find out what works for your snake and go with...

Re: thinking of getting a beardie!

I don't know if my beardie is an exception, but compared to all of my lizards (tegu, iguana, beardie, and water dragon) he is absolutely the most docile. He was completely tame right out of the box....

Re: First time Royal owner !!

One day, I'll save this so I don't have to type it out from memory every time someone gets their first ball python.

Re: Feeding BP that is about to shed.

I wouldn't try to feed him until about a week after he finishes his shed. Ball pythons can famously go for months and months without food, the record is almost two years (22 months). Balls tend to...

Re: What do you think of my cool bracelet!!

I wouldn't let her get in the habit of that. My jungle went from "aw it's a bracelet" to "HONEY! Get a bucket of water, she's doing it again, and my hand is turning purple!" in about 6 months.

The other reason they make great lizard food is that they don't climb, fly, chirp, or stink.

Re: A couple of question about feeding mice

Nothing wrong with feeding live as long as the eyes aren't open.

As far as feeding live once the snake outgrows rats/mice w/ eyes closed..

You'll hear a lot of noise from both sides.

Re: Non-native species cost 'British economy £1.7bn'
