So, some of the most prominent members might have seen my help posts as I pretty much skipped this introduce yourself stuff in the favor of making sure. My perfect noodle(an Interesting term for a Ball python/snake lol) #1 is comfortable in her new home.
Yep, new here almost has been a month now feels longer than that.
A bit of backstory on my recent explosion into the reptile hobby. That was supposed to score me a Blue-Tongued Skink! xD
I actually have wanted a reptile for awhile a supposedly easy to maintain and low maintenance animal was what I was hoping for I have enough active children(dogs) and a teenager(Military Macau) really I just wanted something I could keep in the room, but also handle every now and then but was also at least a little bit uncommon which is what initially drove me to the blue-tongued skink.
But reality hit me in the face in the form of minimum wageand lack of space
the other consideration was my aunt and grandmother. My aunt comes to my house to have a social gathering with my mom and her boyfriend weekly. She is/was deathly afraid of snakes. now my grandmother is never going to enter my house again but she never came inside anyways lol.
Long story short I converted the tank I got for the Blue Tongued skink into a snake enclosure that is now Regina's Snagged 18X36X16(tape measured) for a whopping 50$.
That was the start of it all. an empty glass terrarium and a pet smart visit! Along with a tiny reptile started kit.
which is when I googled this forum.
Before all this, I had done minimal enclosure size/heating and the amount of growth/ type of food research.
But now thanks to this community, I can confidently say that my animals are basking in while pretty plain because decorations are expensive, pieces of heaven all the same!
