Gio, Yafe was an amazing snake and we lost him too soon. I appreciate the kind words. This forum has meant a lot to me over the years as well. ...

Yup, agree with above. Looks like a minor injury. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

This bums me out now. You look so happy and he looks great. You did an incredible job with that snake from the start. If I recall he...

Eggs are the easy part. I hope you can keep up with all those hatchlings! :D

Up until two weeks ago, three clutches in May was my record. It seems that I stomped on that record now: Clutch #7 :D Clutches #1-6 are holding...

Agree w/ both posts above...looks like minor injury, & I'd apply a topical (pref. Vetericyn, or diluted Betadine) to help prevent infection. Should...

WOW to the MAX...:gj:

I'm so glad that you got that closure. It was totally out of your caring hands, just as I assumed.

It seems we did right by Yafe. Still hurts. From the vet: "We got final results back from Yafe. Everything was consistent with myelogenous...

A few more :D:

It wouldn't hurt to treat the spot with some diluted betadine (1:10) or Vetericyn.

Way too hard to pick a favorite- they're all gorgeous!

Gorgeous! These two are my favorites.

I was really joking, not that a snake wouldn't love a pool. Those plastic "kiddie pools" are very difficult to empty without spilling water all...

Damn!! This is bad news and for whatever reason I checked in today. Maybe a vibe or something. I know he had a rough start and MUCH TO...

Speaking from experience... if you do this inside the house, make sure the pool is small and light enough when filled that you can move it to the...

And don't forget to put in a fresh-water swimming pool...:rofl:

Yes, that's sad, but be glad you dodged that ordeal. Poor snakes- but if you check around, there are a number of ball pythons being kept by various...

I'm so sorry. Better to find out now rather than after you brought her home.

Thanks for keeping us updated.

Cat trees & ladders are both good ideas. Ladders have the advantage of multi-purpose, AND can be folded & stored out of the way. You could use 2...

That's an interesting idea that I never considered (since I've never been a cat owner). I assume there would be no issues allowing multiple Boas...

A lot of people use the tall "cat trees" since they're pretty stable, carpeted, no sharp edges, etc. Just don't get one that has a hidey hole to...

Solana's stitches came out without incident. The vet is incredibly happy with how she is doing and she is cleared for normal snake duty. I am...
