This is also why you have to be more understanding when posting. You have middle schoolers on here responding so if they don't get what you're saying then you can't immediately freakout on them haha.

Definitely not something I'm used to. I'll try to take that into account.

I'm out of give a crap at this point. I can find the info if I want, others might not be able to so easily. I thought a nice, neat digest of common errors and consequences would be helpful, but it doesn't seem to be popular. C'est la vie.

Time for a chill pill much? You're coming across a bit abrasive, with all the negative and caps lock. Perhaps a different thread title and original post? Like maybe, things to learn from. Things to do or not... Seems to me somebody may just be in a mood tonight.

As far as what you hoped for out of this thread-

Don't use flexwatt, or heat pads with out a good thermostat.

Don't put neosporin on your snake.

Don't feed live and leave unattended.

Don't ever try to remove stuck eye caps.

Don't soak your bp prior to a shed "to help with the shed".

Don't worry about your bp ingesting substrate, they break down bones...

Make sure you quarantine new animals.

Don't move your animals to feed.

And there is a care sheet for newbies...

And a search function for questions...

I lol'd when I read the title of this thread then read through the posts. The irony.

Disinfect it with a diluted Bleach solution (or antibacterial hand/dish soap, if you prefer) and rinse well and you should be fine. If you don't disinfect first, you could get....well, something bad.


(is this what we're after? I couldn't think of any non-infraction-inducing ways to put the consequences of putting the stick into your mouth prior to disinfection, and I couldn't find appropriate images either, but overall am I on the right track?)

Hahaha me too. I'm glad everyone made up tho.

Actually, this really is a good idea- I had absolutely no idea that tape was a bad idea and might have used it to keep the thermometer probes where I wanted them until I happened to see a brief "don't use tape" comment. Then someone posted a "Oh no! My snake got stuck on some tape and what do I do about fixing him!" thread, complete with pictures that may convince me to clear the entire house of tape in case she gets out

There are some really nasty rescue pictures here, but for the most part we are here because we mean well and want to do our best. I know in my life I've done the most damage when I'm trying hard but don't know just how much I don't know. I can ask questions and look stuff up, but not if I don't even know it's a thing, you know what I mean? The same stuff gets posted all the time, what are the less common things that come up? Someone mentioned big heavy logs- but what about lots of fake plants? They seem kind of impenetrable and Pandora already got stuck and had to back her head out of my one fake vine at just the right angle, and I was about to reach in and help her when she figured it out. I really want a bunch but not at the risk of strangling my snake- so are there fake plant do and dont's? Or poop. It doesnt get talked about too much and I have absolutely no idea what's normal, so it's going to be a big problem before I figure out its maybe not right.
