need parenting advice related to pet care

[Bogertophis]

unfortunately for me a schedule still doesn’t do it for me, ive had points where im filled with immense guilt due to improper care but i still physically cant do anything, its a horrible feeling.

funny part is, i hate crickets and refuse to get any reptile that needs crickets. its not the noise or anything but rather the smell and how annoying they are if they get loose. in fact a panther chameleon is my dream, but i refuse to ever get one just cause of the crickets. ive learned that mentally i cant handle stuff that requires daily attention, which is why i stick with snakes because with a hognose only have to feed every few days and then once a week once they get older. i just have to control myself and only get snakes from here on out, no matter how much i want another animal

Much as I loved the bearded dragon I rescued/saved many years ago, I didn't enjoy having to get him crickets either... Beardies are wonderful pets, but they need
attention & special feeding daily...my snakes are checked on daily, but it's not the same thing...I'm spoiled by keeping snakes. I've had geckos etc. in the past too-
just happier with dogs & snakes, that's enough for me. We all have to 'know ourselves'.
