Re: Must Get My Permit Renewed...

Yep, and everyone's allowed just enough to keep us docile (for the most part).

Re: I want to get a berm any info would be great

There are A LOT of ways of testing. For the most part, snakes are reactionary. It is what it is. We can personify whatever. We're people and good at it.

Re: New Centralian Carpet Python/ Mites!

One step at a time. :)

It's great that you are going out of your way for the little guy but too much will be worse than a few mites.

Re: Need good reading to dispel common misunderstandings about pet snakes

Nothing's better than a first hand experience. If you're comfortable take the LL to the breeder/shop and let them see for themselves. Or invite a friend and theirs over.

Re: Another enclosure question.

Buy your plexiglass /// ACRYLIC from a plastics shop. It's much cheaper than from a home depot or the like.

They should cut it to size free of charge. Additionally you'll have more thickness...

Re: New Centralian Carpet Python/ Mites!

^agreed. Give what you used a chance to work. If the mites are dying that's excellent news. With that being said, keep a close eye, if the bugs stick it out try the next option.

Re: I want to get a berm any info would be great

If you can't wait for a permit then you are acting impulsively and have no business owning _______ that requires a permit. If there was a long wait time all the better, it weeds out the garden.

Re: can i use this for enclosure?

I would line it and make a door(s) for it using acrylic sheeting. Plastic shops may even cut to size for you.

Personally, lining with a plastic would be essential to me in order to keep things...

Re: New Centralian Carpet Python/ Mites!

Nix or PAM.

And to add my two cents, I prefer Nix bc it is local to buy and because it is not so toxic it can harm my animal if diluted. With PAM you have to air out the cage as direct contact can...

Nix, in Canada at least, is sold from behind the drugstore counter. It's cheap, might as well grab the 2pack in case the first round misses some.
