Jon's Garter Snake Thread ( Suzi )

Yeah, I know it's easy. I've done it before. I just don't have a webcam for the desktop, which is wired internet.

And all the wireless internet devices here have built-in cams. So, I'll have to get a cam for the desktop first.

I can see her tail


Are her lights on a timer?

[Foxrun402]

yes they are but I was just kinda messing with the other side of the thing fixing where she pooped so i gave her that light and she darted to it like oooooo whats up over here lol then i put the cam on her

[ProXimuS]

I was just curious, because it was late/dark here when I posted about the light, but then again I don't know how the times differ from here to Nebraksa...

[Foxrun402]

yah they are on a timer that begins at 6:45am and they turn off at 8:00pm. I figure that sould basically simulate daylight for her...

I really kinda want to get a hood I can put on the top going across the screen for extra lighting... this one dome hood and basking bulb is ok but leaves the other side of her home in the dark... I do have a desk lamp with a 25w bulb that puts out sort of a "yellowish" ambient light on the other side... but there is a noticeable change in lighting in the middle of the tank... and when she gets under the full spectrum light she seems to be active and curious... under the light from the desk lamp she just calms down and passes out... kinda odd.. like "mood lighting" lol

my toy morkie was sitting here crying becasue she couldnt see suzi lol... She has watched me handle her and build her home and she get so excited to see her when i mention Suzi's name she runs over to the tank and she puts her paws up and just her little eyes can see around the floor... she cant jump up there but I figured I would prop her up there and show you guys

Cute I've never seen a Morkie like that, she really looks like a Yorkie. My dog also knows, if I say "Snakey?" she goes and sniffs towards the cage

[Foxrun402]

Suzi just wanted to say Hi! lol she has been peering out at me all morning she probably hears me typing and wonders what im doing lol
