New Baby Pix

[RdubSnider]

Through my experience I found that most dogs are just curious but its the cats you have to watch out for. I had a cat. She made several attempts to get at my snakes but unfortunately I didn't get rid of her until she ate my baby snow plains. I've had snakes bite my dogs for getting to curious but lucky my dogs have never done nothing but sniff

Very nice vivarium for the snake!

Very nice vivarium for the snake!

Thanks. Even though it is a big cage for such little scrubs they seem to like it with all the places to hide. The flame male in particular, who just settled after getting him last week, is out and about basking or exploring the folliage just about all day long (when he isn't staring out the glass wondering when the next meal will arrive).

The flash washes him out, he is really starting to color up more than the photo shows.





And here are both...though this pic is overly red...

Totally unnecessary but you know what would look great in that enclosure? zoomed Natural cork tile or forest tile back wall. Yeah.

That does look nice! Maybe I can find a "do it yourself" tutorial on that (though by the time supplies are ordered it is never cheaper than just buying it).

Actually, if you buy in bulk, it is always cheaper, you just have extra. It's cheaper per item you make.
I do this with soaps and lotions. I've spent over 300 dollars on it, but have made over 600 dollars worth of soap and lotion.

I love the way it looks, but if you ever got snake mites i bet it would be a pain.

Not if you use Provent-a-mite.
Simply spray it, let it dry and forgetitaboutit

Zoomed Natural cork tile or forest tile back wall. Yeah.

Yeah the Zoo-Med would run $50 for a backpiece and probably close to $100 for the sides.

I have had a piece of styro-foam insulation sitting around waiting for a project! After having checked out some of the cool DIY backgrounds online with little shelves and such I think I might try that. Would only have to buy the paint/grout.

The moss looks good but if it got pooped on it would probably be a hassle to clean. They aren't pooping much yet but when they get older that will change!

That one above is a do it yourself. You buy the cork, (tiles or natural pieces) cut the pieces to fit together, and install. I didn't even know anyone actually sells completed backgrounds of natural cork. The cork definitely isn't cheap though. You can make simulated rock (painted foam) backgrounds though, using the same methods people use to make landscaping and waterfalls. That would probably be cheaper.
