Well, Mordred’s first rat feeding went well. I cleaned and cleared his tank while he was eating, and am in the process of building his new enclosure. He didn’t bite me when I took him out of the tank with the hook, so I’m hopeful. He still looks skinny to me, but with my scale on the fritz I can’t tell. I’m also not sure how old he is, He SHOULD be about 6 months old, but he seems WAY too small for that. We’ll see when I get a new scale on Thursday. My thermostat is coming in the mail already, and i got a digi thermometer to go with it. NOW, I just need to finish the enclosure, and see if I can get some sort of enrichment for him, including an extra hide to be a humidity hide, and a better UTH than what he’s got. It almost seems to be a mini, but from what I can tell, it keeps the temp at a pretty good level. Anyone else have any input?

6. Do you have a favorite pet? If so what’s its name?

Shit, try so hard not to play favourites but right now it’s definitely Mini, the Rhino Rat. She’s just great at everything. 

11. What future pets do you plan to own?

Horses and ponies and mules. So many horses and ponies and mules. Specifically my dream equines are a Percheron, Irish Draught, Cleveland Bay, Connemara Pony, and a Mustang.

The next dog I want to own is a Bull Terrier.

More immediately though, I’d really like to get a Sphynx or American Curl cat in the next few years.

Also too many snakes and lizards to bother listing.

16. How old is the oldest pet you own?

Noodle, the Ball Python. She’s going to be like thirteen next year.

I thought it would be entertaining to do more inverse images! I ran out of my own ball pythons, so here are some others!

Hi! I would like to find out what type of snake I found. Can I send you a photo?

Hi! Sorry for the extremely late reply. But I would recommend that you take your question to butthurtherpetologist We’re not that great at identifying snakes.. And even if we were, I’m not confident in our ability to be helpful on it :3

The cells that make up the antlers of a moose are the fastest growing animal cells in nature

Antlers in general are really ridiculous and I cannot believe they exist in the here and now.

the muscle directly above ur chin fat is called the platysma

I don’t like that name that much. Let’s call it “Melanie” instead.

Opossums have around 50 teeth, which I think is the most teeth in any mammal?

I wonder if my possom skull has fifty teeth. I should go count.
