this genuinely depresses me i had a wild garden snake for 19 years and he only bit me once that whole time, he died 4 months ago His name was Lucky. RIP

>>733616777
that is a cornsnake are you retarded? peep the pattern and shape of it's head

>Watching some vids now
>Looks like cornsnakes are actually quite docile and chill when they are in a great environment

Any pics where you keep the snek?
More colors means = health issues?
How often to feed and clean area they live in?
Do they sleep a lot?

more colors doesnt mean more health issues in my experience, ill try and take a pic of the enclosure i have them both in the same tank because corn snakes can be housed communally. and fed once a week but once they're full size once every 2 weeks. Mine dont sleep a ton they are more active at night tho

what kind tho

Wait

How do you know they are hungry?

Corn/ball python snakes can survive on mice long term?

>>733616541
aww i had a snek that had the exact same colouring and was female.

she escaped. she was a wild beast.

>>733615931
I want a bearded dragon, do you need a license or whatever?

>>733619726
nope not at all and they're great pets with a ton of personality

>>733615931
> 1 motley cornsnake
> 1 Psammophis Sibilans

1 beardie
2 jackson's (breeding pair)
2 water dragons (breeding pair)

>>733618644
theyre opportunistic feeders typically but if they arent hungry they won't eat its simple

>>733618827
sorry to hear that anon my heart goes out to you

>>733619832
Fuck yeah, better than a cat?

>>733619902
aye always wanted a chameleon since i was a kid but i want a nice panther chameleon

>>733620030
miles better man, theyre fun to feed and you dont have them free roaming so you only take them out when you want to but i recommend once a day with each of your animals depending on the type

>>733620243
So you put them in an enclosure type thing? Not let them cruise around the house?

>>733619726
depends where you live, here in sweden you do need a license, and a special license for venomous snakes.

>>733619996
thanks. you were close to quads. you would have deserved it.

>>733620447
Yeah I just googled it, turns out I'd have to get a license :( gay.

the best part about the tank is decorating it and making it look fucking legit

Was thinking of getting a snake. I used to own leopard geckos and had friends who owned corn snakes. Are they easy to take care of?

Probably won't fuck around with the license thing, do pet shops ask to see a license or should I just buy one of some guy that has them?

>>733615931
Kept a tokay gecko for a while. Little cunt was savage and I eventually took it back to the store. They wouldn't have it back til I said I didn't want anything for it.

>>733621024
way easier than leopard geckos, corn snakes are awesome starters but if you want something that starts off a little bigger i'd say a ball python.

>>733618644
Balls will poke there head out of there hideing spot when they are hungry. Also ball pythons are fun to poke in thr nose.

>>733621283
from the US so i have no clue boi

>>733621286
Tokay Geckos are some of the meanest little fuckers alive i s2g nobody tells you that when you get them too theyre fierce little fuckers but pretty as all hell

>>733621201
gorgeous little guys, is that you in the pic btw? i love your hair if so

>>733621553
Yes, and thank you! The chameleons have like a magnetic attraction to it, any time I take them out they eventually end up somewhere on my head

I had to shut his heat down for 24 hrs to clean the tank out. If I didn't he'd attack anything I put in there. Use to wear my bike gloves just in case he still had some oomph left in him.

For how long can you leave a bearded dragon?
Will it get health issues if i smoke weed around it?

>>733625895
Do they suck cock? What would happen if I gave it a rimjob? Would it explode in the microwave?

>>733625301
depends, they need heat and a lot of room when they're full size as well as UVB light

>>733625895
Can i get it cool hats and other accessories?
Will it get lonely if it never meets other of its kind?

I Smoke around mine all the time and they're fine and they need to be fed every other day at least but preferably every day you can leave them food in their tank when you're away they can go for a while without food but it isn't good for them

>enclosure
>special light
How did they ever survive in the wild then? This is getting tedious.

>>733625433
You will get health issues if you smoke weed around it. You will get health issues if you smoke weed not around it. You may have mental health issues if you choose pets based on their compatibility with your own self-abuse.

>>733625895
i feed mine large mice as treats but not often. theyll eat anything smaller than them
>see vid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVovfJeMb4A

>>733625895
and it'll shit whenever it needs to its shit on my floor before on carpet its an easy clean if you notice it

>>733626320
the special light is literally just UVB it produces UV rays so they get the vitamins they need

>>733626320
And the total comes to...
Well over $9000

>>733626320
how the fuck would they survive without human help?

>>733626766
comes to around 300$ usd (including the animal) if you're not being a jew about it. i got a 100 gallon tank off craigslist with a stand for 50$ saved a shitton of money

>>733626682
I dunno man one time I ate popcorn out of a bin and I'm still alive, I reckon it'll be fine without this fancy dan light you speak of

>>733626852
They're native to Australia so obviously keeping them inside and in a cold place will need some changes

I have a normal bp. That's about it.

>>733626936
without it they'll contract MBD (metabolic bone disease) and die a very slow sad death so if you wanna do it like that go ahead yo but you'll kill it

>>733626852
It just won't have a tan, it'll be like a goth lizard, I reckon it'll feel better not being hot 24/7, I know I do

Ever chopped a snakes head off slowly? They let off some weird stinky fumes

>>733626150
keep them alone otherwise they get territorial and to answer the hat question fuck yes you can

thanks that's literally EXACTLY like mine

>>733627781
She's fairly small still so I don't give her anything live too often. But she gets crickets, fuzzies (small, frozen mice), and she fucking loves hard-boiled eggs. Eventually she'll get live rabbits but she's not even close to that size.
When they get bigger they start acting like dogs if they're well taken care and she's already doing it

>>733628206
I was having fun playing along tho

>>733628166
Yeah probably gonna turn my TV cabinet into an enclosure, it'd look cool. I'll probably get a small beasty though as its not huge.

>>733628271
yeah they are hard to tame out but when they do they're just as smart as dogs they recognize facial structure and know that like when youre crying that youre sad and shit they are very loyal if you raise them right

>>733628412
It takes a lot of patience but the hardest part is just getting then used to you. I hold mine all the time on my shoulder or my lap, I can even hand feed her while holding her now. I want her to be able to chill around my house and not even need a tank or cage

Just found this gardener snake in my back yard today, its the biggest one Ive ever seen. It bit my old man while we where catching him in the yard. He decided to go take a nap and Ive got the snake in a liter bucket until my dad wakes up. Then I can go get a cage at the store.

>>733629513
Is your old man OK? It could be poisonous ( I am expert on animal )

>>733629513
Garter snakes are fucking sweet I've never seen one that big

So my dad Isn't fucking waking up and hhis arm is looking black as shit now. Im sure he just forgot to take his insulin again.

After I saw your post I ran into his room. When I came back I had forgotten the only thing securing the gardener snake was me sitting on top of the upside down Liter bucket.

Animal control said they will be here in 30 minutes to help me out.

I think there may be something wrong with my snake.
He looks a lot different than the ones posted here

>>733620916
Nice tank, you're dragon's spoilt. What do you use to hold up the lights though? Or do they just sit on the screen?

>>733632253
LOL that's a squirrel

>>733632070
So i chased the gardener snake into my back yard and into my neighbors yard near their swing set.

He's no longer my issue and I told the wild life control it was a false alarm. Im going to go take a nap after that excitement and then go out to eat with my non self sufficient father who apparently cant learn to take his damn insulin when he needs to be taking it.

>>733632840
I don't think that's right.
The guy that sold him to me told me he was a rare breed of snek.
He smells funny though and doesn't eat mine, he eats kitty food. I assume it's because of his weird teeth

>>733633039
Hmmm you might be right, but it looks amphibious. I recommend putting him in a public swimming pool, if anyone has a hissy fit, its obviously because they are not used to seeing such majestic beasts

>>733633336
Well. I threw him into the pond outside in the backyard to get him acclimated.
It did not go well.
He screamed a scream that I think will haunt me to the end of my days.
I ran home and locked my door, but I can hear him scratching with his snek claws to be let in.
I think he wants revenge

>>733633609
The hellish beast is obviously some sort of psychopath, have you tried getting a priest to perform an exorcism? Something is troubling the young amphibian
