Re: I got an Internship at a Refuge! (HUGE DUW)
well today was just another day, kinda
i completed the pond, officially, i think. made the waterfall-its not 110% done yet (still need to hide the top of the hose), but i wanna make sure everythings cool with the boss before i do all that.
we have visitors already, and the turtles havent been in yet!
to recap:
before-
after
before
after- not exactly the same shot, but close
the waterfall-im just gonna make it trickle so the turtles can chill on the rocks.
buried the hose (which was put into a 1.5" pvc pipe to prevents gnawing/biting through
another view
aside from that, we have a HUGGGGGE mite infestation. we are treating them with "CVS Bedding Spray", but a friend of mine who i got my snake from (Susan at SSNAKES.com) gave me a can of provent-a-mite. hopefully itll work better. here is a pic of an albino burmese that keeps getting worse. what should i ask to do? soak him (in that solution that starts with B. Bactynine or something?) every snake we have now has mites, no matter how much we spray there tanks. this is another reason i wanna make a rack- these things are THRIVING in the wooden/screen setups we have
and here is me feeding Delilah
take care guys. let me know what i can do about the mites. we dont have space to quarantine them anywhere.

When you spray the PAM, spray the whole enclosure, not just the snake. While you are at it, if the snakes are in a room by themselves, spray the whole room. A snake I got off KS had mites and I did not catch it for a few days and by then the mites had spread a good bit. I sprayed PAM through each enclosure and on the wood that makes up the rack and in the surrounding area on the floor.

Re: I got an Internship at a Refuge! (HUGE DUW)
the directions say to do a "one second spray" for every square foot of the enclosure. it says to NOT spray the snake or water-even take them out before you spray the tank. i only sprayed in 1 spot for 1-2 seconds, as per the instructions and the breeder i received the can from.

sorry, i didn't read before I posted. I didn't mean to physically spray the snake. I meant to spray more of the enclosure than just the bedding.
