Any reptile/snake experts who have other suggestions or insight to aid in getting this little one to feed more reliably, please, I’m all ears.

This baby snake at work has become my personal passion project. It’s an amelanistic corn snake like one I have at home, about the same size and age, but it refuses food most of the time. The store had it 5 weeks when I started and it hadn’t eaten at all yet…⬇️ #CornSnake #Husbandry

Nice soft light this evening had me getting pics of Nimona the hybrid pine snake (black pine x bullsnake). She’s got her dad’s head and peachy background color…but her mom’s placid demeanor and filling in her dark colors.

More showing off Nimona’s neck colora but from above, and with a glimpse of her checkered belly on my wrist

It is, there are a lot more people in hobbies such as fishing AND fishkeeping, herpetoculture etc that are shining a light on practices towards non 'pet' animals that are cruel.

@toadcialism.bsky.social

I noticed an influx of new followers.

Hi, this is a leftist shitposting paradise full of reptiles, amphibians, the weird jewelry I make, gamedev stuff, and if politics and endless herpetoculture make you uncomfortable, you’re gonna have a bad time.

Kthxbai!

Zuri wanted some out time so he hung out with Dad in the office. For the curious, he is a Mojave - Cinnamon - Cypress morph.

Zuri & I hanging out in the late evening in my new office. He ate two baby chicks earlier this week, something a bit unusual as he has the tendency to be a picky eater. He enjoyed the play time.

A lot of my plants died over the winter... so I replanted a little. My toads should be very happy now! (See if you can spot Casey in this picture!)

A terrarium filled with lush green plants and colourful flowers. A hungry toad named Casey sits inside the terrarium staring at a cricket.

Here's a new episode of Let's Talk Turtles! Stream it below or find it on all the typical podcast outlets. We discuss listener survey results, weather, responsible herpetoculture and ask how to measure any conservation impact of producing animals in human care. #herps 🐢
