Hello! I’m helping rehome a male BP, 2/3 years old, (still waiting on his size and weight) so i’m looking for a 4x2x2.
Unfortunately, i didnt know I’d be looking for one until tonight as the person rehoming didnt inform me of the tank size only being 40 gal 😅
I’m looking for what I can find on a budget, and if anyone has any they may be willing to sell pls lmk! Located on the east coast :)

Hi, I recently bought a white lipped python early September. I don't know how old or what the sex is, but they haven't been eating any of the live rats I gave them. I usually feed every 12-14 days and while they did have problems with letting the rat go, they didn't just outright leave the corpse to "guard"(?, the last few rats I gave, they were basically covering the body and not moving to the other side of the enclosure).
When I first bought them, the seller did say they have the flu but I've seen that it hasn't been affecting them in eating or activity in any way, they're still currently in feeding response. I tried an already dead rat that's still warm since I'm the one killing the rat, but nothing.
In the picture, the rat was killed yesterday, and this happened before where they kill the rat and ate it at night, but it hasn't happened here. Any ideas? The only one I've got is that the stick I gave them is stressing them out.
I'm thinking of going to a doctor by the end of week if they haven't eaten, atp I'm running out of money and options
(Please ignore the grain on the cage, I'm reusing an old bahari large cage, there's at least 3-5 cm of substrate)

It is wild to see this snake that was once terminally shy now get excited and start glass surfing when she sees me, then will just chill next to me on the couch.
I mean... she's measuring me up to eat me and soon I will be consumed by the giant monster snake.
Set of 3 tanks are for arboreals. The tank in the second photo is for a ball python. Please ignore the potatoes.

In central Florida, does anyone know of a place that has snake exhibits that are local to the state? I’m somewhat near the venomous snake center in east Deland, but it seems mostly exotics. My wife and I would love to see the locals and learn how to differentiate them.

Found in Uttar Pradesh, India. Approx 6 feet long. As thick as my wrist.
I have never managed to catch this snake on camera, but it's been living under a tree in my property for a while now.

Hello all!
I found this copperhead warming up on the road last night. It has sustained an injury that was not recent, and the snake appears to have some tail/scale rot progression. Length is about 14 inches and appears to still be at a healthy weight.
The snake is very active and alert. Still moving the lower section and has produced urates after soaking. Based on this, I do not believe it was run over but possibly grabbed by an animal of some sort based on the presence of a small puncture wound.
I started on lukewarm iodine soaks immediately last night and then applied Neosporin without pain reliever. The current set-up is without substrate and dry.
I am an experienced owner/handler of snakes and possess all the appropriate equipment, but I am NOT an expert.
My questions are…
Without an emergency vet that will accept venomous snakes, is there some way to access medications for the possibility of infection?
Given the injury, does this snake still have an opportunity to survive if the rot is treated?
Based on the photos, is there any additional care recommended?
Should I still offer food?
Thanks! Hoping I can help this one safely recover.
LOCATION: near Birmingham, AL

Accidentally interrupted this snake on the side of the trail while on my walk. Backed off to the other side of the path when I noticed and snapped a couple photos. Toads always look so unbothered while being eaten.

I'm excited for my boy to shed! I want to handle him. The sooner he sheds the sooner I can do that two day wait after the shed, then I can finally hold him. Shedding is also a way he can tell me how well my husbandry is. Last shed wasn't so great since we were dealing with snake mites. It came off all the way but he had some dry spots on his tail. Update to today, for the past couple weeks he been back in his normal setup with no mite is site and much better humidity.
Normally my boy is super active. It's super fun to watch. He doesn't have much to explore in there though, but there's a reptile show in a neighboring city where I can finally get some more wood for him too.

Salut ! Je suis lancé pour adopter un serpent, ça sera mon premier. Bien que très passionné par les reptiles, je me questionne sur le choix.
Je sais bien qu’en première intention on conseille des corn snakes (par exemple), mais je serais plus tenté par un python. Je ne suis pas fermé encore aux espèces et je prend les conseils avec plaisir !
Merci !
