Saw this video and it made me want to ask

Hey everyone! so im currently looking for different options to buy my FT Pinkies online. the regular pet stores near me are ok but there is always an issue with availability and i just want to find something online. what are you guys go to for buying your mice?

HELLO !! I’ve had my KSB for about 2 years now and it’s time for me to head to college. I currently have her in a 20 gallon long with aspen as bedding. I can’t keep her there seeing as where I’m moving has very limited space and probably rules about keeping pets. Some people online have said to use sterilite bins. So I came to ask if 1 that’s a good idea? 2 if so what size? And 3 should I still use aspen or change to a different bedding?

Hello! I have a male Kenyan sand boa who will be 2 years old in June. He currently weighs 54 grams. I have been feeding him a fuzzy mouse once every 2-4 weeks (I sized up to fuzzy mice in December 2023), and he has weighed somewhere between 52-56 grams since February. He went on a hunger strike from mid-July 2023 to early-December 2023, but aside from that and a couple of failed feedings (which may have been because he didn't notice the mouse), he has been eating fairly consistently.
I am concerned that he hasn't put on any weight for three months, and my only source for male Kenyan sand boa weights said that males can weigh up to 125 grams (though that was from a breeder, so I wonder if it's skewed by power-feeding). Is this normal, or should I check for symptoms of other health/husbandry issues?

My little buddy is on aspen bedding and he has access to a bowl of fresh water 24/7. The temps in his enclosure range from the mid 70s - 90 degrees Fahrenheit. humidity typically ranges from 30-40%. Do I need to do anything to help him?

i live in new england/northeast us and it's started to get hot here lately, but i'm worried about putting an ac in my room because that's where my little dude is. his tank is 92f warm side, 78f cool side. will the heat mat and che lamp be enough for him with ac running, or should i stick with just a fan?

OK. So this is Petra's semi bioactive environment (need to add my live plants to make it complete). Fed her once inside and it kind of was concerning because I could see a few dirt specks on the Pinkies as she ate them, but I figured in the wild they deal with specks of dirt on a daily basis so I'm like meh ok chill out. Upon googling I've gotten mixed results almost 50/50 on feeding outside enclosure vs inside enclosure. One thing that caught my eye was a reading mentioning how feeding in the enclosure increases the chance that the feeding instinct will kick in when you put your hand inside and accidental bites can occur. So why DO you or DON’T you feed in the enclosure? welcoming all opinions here.

P.S. Any suggestions for safe glass cleaners?

Does anyone have any tips on things i can do to spice up my kenyan sand boas enclosure? He has a water bowl, a skull hide, and some cork wood with aspen bedding, but he still seems pretty inactive or uncomfortable. Im worried hes not as happy as he should be. Ive been lurking in some snake reddits for awhile now and saw that a lot of the advice they give you at pet stores is wrong and thats really all i have. Some advice on how to house him better would be fantastic!

I have a sand boa have had it for 8 years. Recieved from family because older brother passed so is older then 8. But he recently ended up with a scab on his head which he ripped off and now he just looks awful. Should I just get him put down?

Dune's been back to his normal self lately so he got to come hang out with me while I watched TV. 🧡

bowl was only in there with the pinkie and was removed after. he struck after about 15 seconds and latched right away, taking a minute or two to coil around. I'm so proud of my boy ♡
