Bump

[ConcinusMan]

What's with the bumping? I mean, I get it and the bumping is worthy/justified but I really think many of these are worthy of "sticky" and/or care sheet archival. New/less knowledgeable/inexperienced members should be able to find this info easily and without posting a FAQ and waiting for spam clearance/replies. Just my opinion.

You can do a search for what you're looking for, then look through the results. Or simply look through the threads under each thread heading (general talk, urgent care, husbandry, etc)

There was a software upgrade a couple years back and I think some article(threads) were lost. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong)

Yeah that sucks. especially the loss of the photographic library. I worked hard on parts of it.

I just found a young T. s. concinnus - Red-spotted Garter snake with a retailed shed. I was lucky to catch the problem as the only sign of trouble was vertical folds/wrinkles when she was coiled.
This incident brought home to me the importance of daily observations of your snakes.
