Sooooo... Athena is shedding again? I'm not sure why she made me wait so long for the first one, which was about 5 months, if she couldn't make it to a full 2 this time. She is already in blue too. I haven't taken her out in a little while because she hasnt pooped in a couple meals (must be waiting until she sheds now that I think about it) so I was giving her time to pass it, and I missed all the early shedding signs. Oh well. Time to break out the humidity box!
Took Athena out for the first time today! Now that its decently warm and not sweltering hot outside, this will hopefully be a more common occurance :) She definitely seemed to enjoy herself! :)
Here is a list of ball python morphs with issues
Spider, Wobble Woma, Wobble Hidden Gene Woma, Wobble Champagne, Wobble Super Sable, Wobble Powerball, Wobble Sable x Spider, Difficult to hatch, severe wobble Champagne x Hidden Gene Woma, Severe wobble Champagne x Spider, Lethal Pearl, Normally Lethal Super Champagne, Lethal Super Spider, Lethal Desert(not to be confused with desert ghost), Female fertility issues Caramel Albino, Kinking and female sub-fertility Super Cinnamon/Super Black Pastel, Duckbill & rare kinking Super Lesser Platinum/Super Butter(not applied to super mojaves or lesser/mojaves), Bug eyes Lesser Platinum x Piedbald, Small Eyes Morphs that for some reason people confuse for morphs with issues, but DONT actually have issues. (I.E. the morphs listed below are often said to have issues by newer keepers because they are easily confused with problem morphs. They do not have any issues) Pinstripe (Gets confused with spider) Bamboo (Gets confused with woma/spider etc) Enchi (Gets confused with woma or spider) Lesser/mojave BEL (Gets confused with super lessers) Hypo (any strain) (Gets confused with caramel albino?) Super stripe (Not even sure what this one gets confused with honestly) G-stripe (Same with this, no idea)
ANYTHING other than the morphs in the first list do not have issues as far as I am aware. All combos made from the base morphs in the first list WILL HAVE THE SAME ISSUES.
The quality isn't great because I took it through the terrarium glass, but look how cute!!!! First time I've caught her fully submerged
She may be cute, but she's not very bright
I took Athena's hide out with her so she could go in it if she chose but she was much more interested in going over it
I will always reblog this. It’s fascinating and terrifying at the same time.
Holy shit
holy fucking shit
I am now officially terrified of snakes.
#let’s just take a moment to appreciate that gif of a scientist casually swirling blood around in a wine glass
a) The Russell’s viper has phospolyphasic venom, a very rare venom amongst snakes, and unless you live in southeast asia, you will not encounter a snake with this kind of venom. b) only about 14% of all snake species are venomous c) The picture above is of a King Cobra, therefore not in Australia. d) More people are killed by fridges every year than snakes. Are you terrified of fridges? No? Then stop being a little bitch and respect them as the perfectly evolved predatory hunters that they are.
reblogging for the last comment
I’ve seen that gif set going around before with various people saying ” this is why i hate snakes” ect.. So thought I’d add my contribution too.
As said above the majority of snake species are non-venomous and some of the venomous snake species included in that percentage don’t have venom that is a danger to people.
However, venomous or not, all snakes still deserve our respect. Leave wild snakes alone and they will do the same for you.
Also, Venom is amazing stuff! Recent research into snake venom has revealed venom from the Black Mamba could provide a painkiller as effective as morphine [x], but much safer to use with fewer side effects. Other research has shown components in snake venom could help to cure cancer [x], treat diabetes, multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular diseases and more! [x] [x] [x] [x] [x].
Who knows? The ability of this venom to clot blood could hold the key to therapeutics for clotting factor deficiency diseases like hemophilia ??
So lets not hate on snakes for these amazing abilities…
It finally happened! After 6 months of waiting, Athena shed for the first time! 🎉🎉🎉
This is a couple days old now but Athena went through the zombie phase and should be shedding any day now :)
I've had Athena since Christmas and she hasnt shed yet, but from the looks of that belly it'll be soon! She hasnt gone into blue yet so she still has a little while to go :)
She fell asleep like this... What a cutie ❤
She hïde
Kind of a late update but I was joking when I said Athena was stuck in the last post but after a couple minutes I realized "oh damn she really is stuck" and had to VERY CAREFULLY cut her out. I felt like I was performing surgery and it was very stressful. She is fine, a little mad that I destroyed her toy but she has 2 more. She'll be fine lol
she stuck
PSA To anyone who allows their cats near their reptiles:
It is extremely dangerous no matter how much you trust or know your cat and this is why.
This is our Nova, no we didn’t purposely allow her near our cats; she somehow managed to escape her locked tub while we were sleeping two days ago.
Thankfully, we aren’t near the polar vortex, however, we do have two cats; one is a known hunter and killer, our other just likes to play with things rather than kill them. “Luckily”, she was only found by the one who likes to play rather than kill. They have both seen Nova before, but were never allowed anywhere near who ever was handling her at the time for this exact reason.
We are extremely lucky that this was best case scenario - she is alive, she ate, and the injuries aren’t deep nor severe bites, they are only small punctures and scratches from curious claws.
We are keeping a very close eye on the injuries; we have her in a sterile environment, and have Betadine on hand to keep the wounds clean.
It doesn’t matter how well you know or trust your animals, do not put predatory pets and prey pets together on purpose. Zootonic diseases and bacteria can be spread through one small scratch or bite.
