it is real little man hours

hello snake tumblr i am making a pinned post for a blog for once

i'm rein, he/him, i'm in my 20s and this blog is for my ball python Peanut Butter, and things related to snakes and ball python care

pb is a juvenile (i only know he hatched in 2022, the breeder didn't give me an exact date) and he is a banana butter bee

unfortunately this means he has the spider wobble gene and part of this blog will be dedicated to documenting any examples of wobble i see him exhibiting. i bought him not knowing about spider morphs or their varieties but i love him all the same. im a first time snake owner but im dedicated to doing it right- feel free to let me know if you think im doing something wrong with my husbandry, as long as you word your criticism/advice politely it is always appreciated

pic of peanut butter for your viewing pleasure:

any other snake people (sneople, if you will) get really weird and nervous when they haven't seen their snake in a couple days?

maybe it's because my lack of experience caused peanut butter some health problems right when i first got him, but im always so scared that im gonna go to check on him after a few days of having left him alone and he'll have fucking exploded or turned into sludge somehow or broken into little bits like a stick. he's always perfectly fine every time and im always so relieved, but it never stops me from having the same worry the next week, despite my husbandry being the exact same

anyway. obligatory pic of my little guy who's getting Thicker since i moved him up to bigger mice, not that it's really visible in the pic. i will be switching him to rats as soon as he's big enough to handle em.

i love you fat baby

mf thinks my head is a jungle gym

(i use he/him)

the way he just sits there for a while when i put him down. he looks like he doesn't know what to do with himself. like i went to the store to get milk

1 year anniversary of when i brought my boy home! we went outside for some enrichment and he was so sniffy (did not catch that on camera sadly)

[peanut-butter-boy]

the amount of praise i give peanut butter when he gets his mouse with no problems is kinda ridiculous ngl im treating this little man like he just did a backflip for not accidentally eating dirt or getting scared of dinner

[peanut-butter-boy]

hello animal. ive missed you animal

last time i tried to pick him up he was freshly shed so he wasn't pleased, and i just left him alone. today though he was very sweet and curious instead

[peanut-butter-boy]

i just noticed this little heart shape on his butt. my boy got his cutie mark

[peanut-butter-boy]

anyone else ever get tempted to stick their finger in their snake's mouth when they yawn

[peanut-butter-boy]

little man went outside for the first time today! including pic of his little slit eyes because of the light and his Enthusiastic Sniffage, very exciting time for him

[peanut-butter-boy]

mr man decided the crook of my elbow was the most comfortable place in the world and sat there for a solid 10 minutes

[peanut-butter-boy]
