If i had a choice I would not have gotten involved with this species. It is a little much for me. At the same token now that I am starting to get everything set up, I am glade I have it. It has not been as bad as I thought. I am still not done but we are getting there.

I would like any recommendations on a possible substate or not. And settings on the fogger. It is digital and has lots of options to chose from.

I was suppost to get a new cage and fogger from a friend but he recently had a corona scare. So we are now staying away and I had to change my options a little late in the game. I think i have it all resolved with the exceptions of going bioactive and not having its new enclosure yet.

She/he is doing well. Dehydration issue is gone. It has been eating and drinking well. Every step I take adding to its enclosure seems to make it a little happier. I will have to take some more pics soon with all the changes.

I can not deny i was worried about that when I did the initial post. I gave a pre disclaimer in hopes it would curve that. And I think it did well at that. I try to remember that it is about the animal and that while they can give a hard time they are trying to help. So I try to to take it...

I agree, and I get your initial concern. I felt that was better than persay a box like they do over the weekend for reptile shows. Was it the best idea? No. But it was the best I had at the moment. I am still not quite there yet but I am working on it. I am not sure yet if I am going to go...

Also with that being said the statement he quoted said quick set up. Not new set up. And bark does have purpose. It holds humidity. Since I was leaving out of town for the weekend it needed something. I was not about to cancel my weekend over it, if it died it died. At least I can say I...

Right now he has no substrate. Do you have any recommendations or keep it barron? It does have a tub underneath that acts as a drainage system.

Right now it has no su I see the same thing regarding sand boas, they absolutely run risk in the wild. It is just a matter of providing the best possible scenario we can. For example I use ground aspen instead of sand and they like it. Also if they eat it. It is digestible. Some people...

The new fogger came in yesterday, the lights come in today, the new cage I am waiting on. Fan added, cooling system added, bark removed. New plants added. It was litterlay thrown in my lap. That cage was originally set up for tokays but never got used. The bark was to hold a small amount...

The whole thing is getting changed.

This is going to be an amazing learning process for me. I am very glad I got them.

I also noticed differences in color when sleeping. Some of them tend to just get darker in color while others. Have red popping in along the sides and back. May just be genetic or something else all together.

It absolutely applies to these .

I caught two large females and 5 babies
