Is your ER busier during the holidays?

I'm jealous! I haven't been to a reptile show in a long time. And you just reminded me I need to get food for my son's ball python.....and I'm almost out of cat food for Mini-Me's kitten.

I'd like to see pics from the show! Anything in particular you're hoping to see or buy?

Looks like I spoke too soon, we just got a little bolus of people. I still cant comprehend what brings people to the ER at 1am with nonsense.

For tomorrow I need to get food for the kids, I also need to get some sort of heat source for the pythons, I have the undertank heat pads but the back rooms been getting kinda chilly. I may get one of those ceramic heat sources and rig it just outside the closet so it onle warms that area.

I also want to start doing soem research on land tortises since that may be my next aquisition, and theres always the possibility of another snake comming home with me if something catches my eye.

They're bored & they probably don't have to pay for it.

Have you thought about using heat lamps? My son's snake seems to like hers.

Turtles next? I bet you stand a better chance of getting a turtle than another snake.

i may go with a heat lamp and one of those shrouds that help radiate the heat, they have the lillte clamps on them so I can attatch it to the closet door and keep the cats away from it. I need to ask which would be better to heat the sized area I need.

As for the turtles, the missus wants one too so shes def on board with that, I would love to set up something for some aquatic turtles too but theyre kinda time consuming for the upkeep and I def dont have the time. if I buy a colubrid or smething small i think she would be ok with that just nothing venemous or large

How big is your setup? I don't you've every truly described it. We have a small heat lamp for a 30gallon tank & it's quite warm if that helps any.

What kind of colubrid? Not a kingsnake...your pythons are antisocial enough.

i already have a mex mex kingsnake. I woul dhave to see something that realy catches my eye. What I would consider : a grey banded king, some red albino phase corn snakes ( pref a motley) and maybe a milk snake if they had a nice tangerine phase pueblan or a reasonably priced honduran tri color.

or I can go all out and get a nice green tree python if i want to always get bit
