Shanley's Snakes Thread

actually the cage is quite dry... idk why...... i even have to mist it in the winter....... i guess the plants i have just don't give off to much moisture?

Shanley I don't want to sound pessimistic but that runt most likely won't make it. I had two born last year just like that. Super tiny. One died within a few days, the other started eating, and then died spontaneously, so don't feel too upset if he doesn't make it, nature didn't intend for him to make it

yeah..... idk.... i've never had one die for no reason... or even from being sick or not eating..... but i'm just gonna hope for the best.... it seems like he's doing great eating drinking and doing everything fine...... i just have fingers crossed for the best.... but i knew from the start that he was the most likely to fail.....

It's been WAY too long. Still Love my pets, Sadly though many have passed on. Sooty wrapped herself around a heat lamp that I had just unplugged in late 2009, Willow squeezed her head through a tiny hole and broke her back and most recently, in October, Meadow passed on. She was at least 10 and just could not stay healthy. She got an infection and the shots from the vet caused her liver to fail shortly after she was starting to get better. She was the best pet I'll ever have. Few snakes in this world are able to be let loose in the yard to wander, she would always come find me and wrap herself around my leg when it was time to go in. She would escape and find me in her house, travel up of down the stairs, anything. I never had to look for her. wouldn't even know she was missing, she'd escape in the night get up on my bed and wake me up, travel downstairs and find me sitting on the couch, she was an amazing animal. She will be missed by many in my community, as she was my greatest tool in teaching people snakes should be appreciated not feared. Hopefully her daughters will retain her amazing personality, but I fear no snake will ever come close. I will forever miss my hairpiece, my neck warmer, my tear dryer, and most of all, my friend. RIP Meadow

Shanley, I'm so sorry to hear about Meadow, Sooty & Willow. I know they were all very special to you, especially Meadow I haven't been around much either, but do think of all of the old regulars often. Will be looking forward to pics when you get that camera charged!
