Snek will 'run' from you, put on a display or make a sound to warn you it's there. You will only get bitten if you greb snek.

Quick question, do you know the biological purpose of the holes on its snout?

>>738283832
they're heat sensors

>>738283221
lol, that doesn't answer my question. I had to use google. It's called leucism, I guess. I thought maybe it was a chimera made of an albino snake and a normal snake.

Snake are shit tier pets.
They do not have any capacity for being actual companions.
With a cat or a dog, you can connect on an emotional level.
The best you can hope for with reptiles is them ignoring oyu.

No.

>>738284033

Nope. Piebald, the name of that particular morph, is a specific gene ball pythons can carry. As will most other morphs, it was a stable genetic mutation that breeders found at some point along the way in their breeding projects. Piebald BP's are perfectly healthy and have no physical or neurological issues.

first day when i got her, she was scared to death because she was taken from bad conditions. she had lots of scars because her cagemates had been bullied her. it took few weeks to get her tolerate me and after 2 months i noticed that she began to get out of her burrows every time i returned home from work. i always need to hand feed insects to her too, otherwise she refuses to eat them

fire skinks are native to tropical forests in western africa. they're diurnal but sometimes they get up at night too. and average lifespan is something between 15 and 25 years. i live in finland

Do snakes actually enjoy it if you pet them like a dog or something?

>>738288253
Im in Texas. We dont have lizards like that. Thats why I asked.

>>738288342
I don't own any pets, actually.
But if i did, the bare minimum would be that they weren't just dead meat incapable of thoughts and emotions.

>>738282842
what they ran out of colored ink or something?

>>738288309
Yeah criticism isn't complaining m8 sorry.

Sometimes I think about buying a kimono dragon and raising it until it becomes so large I can ride it. Toss a little protein powder in its food and get it to lift some weights or something.

>>738288362
Thats sad... Is there any other way to show affection to them or to interact with them other than feeding and posing in music videos?

>>738287461
You're right

I bought a snake because they feel cool in your hands, but it has never once shown any signs of thinking of me as anything other than a giant scary food giving creature

CB fire skinks are bit hard to find, but they're usually around 100€. setup is bit more expensive, because you need lots of substrate for burrows and lots of decorations and cover to keep them active and interested. trickiest part is the vivarium, because you need damp substrate, but 55-70 percent humidity with good air flow.

Reptiles aren't snuggle bugs. You want a snugglebuddy get a cat or dog or maybe a rabbit or something fluffy.

>>738288671
Yeah, that's my point.
And I'm not judging anyone if they like their pets that way.
But don't trick yourself into thinking that they have the same mental and emotional capacity as cats and dogs.

Yup constructive criticism

Still begs the question: what are you doing here? People have hobbies. You're in a thread about a hobby you don't like. Fish are dumb as hell. People keep fish because it is something to do. Maybe go bother them for a while.

>>738288661
they can, depending on their condition. for example they make clicking sound and open their mouths if they have respiratory infection.
usually when something's wrong, they stop eating and if it continues longer than normal fasting, then there's definitely something wrong and it needs to be taken to the vet

>>738289111

>>738289130
You have your right to make threats, I have my right to comment in them.
Call moot if you don't like it. Also fish people think differently of their animals.
Fish are more home decoration than actual pets.
They don't make the same ridiculous statements about fish than reptile owners do about their pets.

You're not objective, you're emotional. You cannot offer criticism in such a manner. You should go read a book since you're clearly so dense you'd struggle to understand little more than your own self-serving stupidity.

although some monitor lizards, tortoises and crocodilians have been reported to have atleast as good bonding capacity as cats and dogs, they still generally aren't as smart and said cases are very rare.

>insults
Calling a spade a spade is not an insult, it's a simple observation. The fact you've gone on this little witch hunt proves the fact you're a fool, but once again I'm simply stating the obvious.

Ah, so you're another retard that seems to be claiming I'm stating things I'm not.

My two gargoyle geckos. Ones fired up and one is fired down. They lighten/darken their colour depending on their environment. The darker one had been in her hide but the lighter one had been resting on some bamboo wood.

kek

More snek pics please

Yeah, I already answered my own question. Lucism is the name of the genetic abnormality that causes animals to be piebald.

Who gives a fuck. Do you think people keep fish, hermit crabs, bugs, finches etc etc based on their companionship qualities? It's just fun and interesting to care for an animal and watch them.

You can even make a bio active environment for them where the soil has microorganism cultures and bugs to break down their waste and fill it full of hides and real plants and just enjoy watching the reptile interact with its environment. You don't even have to handle them anyway as most reptiles tolerate it rather than enjoy it. They don't have the need for social interaction that mammals have.
