Frozen feeder rodents tip.
As you may have noticed, the frozen rodents (generally branded “Arctic Mice”) sold at stores like Petsmart/Petco tend to be overpriced, badly packed/preserved, and lacking a lot of nutrients!
They come in very small quantities (2-5 per box) and often look malnourished as well as 1-2 sizes lower than advertised. It’s also incredibly inconvenient to drive to the pet store just to...

Followers! What kind of snake(s) do YOU have?
mollymbaaby asked: Do you think it's uncomfortable for snakes if you pick them up right after they eat? I'd imagine it is, but my corn snake doesn't seem to mind it too much.

Snake housing: My alternative to fish tanks.
sadness-of-sophistication:
If you own a snake, you’ve probably heard of or experimented with the popular practice of keeping snakes in plastic tubs.

Anonymous asked: hiya, i have recently got a Carolina Corn Snake and I was wondering how big they grow?

To clear up a few things about the recent snake...
Snakes sometimes require baths because it helps them shed and poop healthily. Some snakes will actually voluntarily soak in water for long periods of time, although this doesn’t appear to be one of them. ;)
Captive blood pythons are not life-endangering pets. Although they have more attitude than most pet snakes and can deal a hefty bite, they are not actually capable of lethal damage....

bonerflower reblogged your photo: Random snake I found while walking along Hontoon…
Are you sure it wasn’t a red-headed skink?
It does look pretty lizard-y to me. The head is not snake-like at all. Sounds right to me. Neat creature in any case.
