IN FISH PARADISE
hi ..

well im in sort of miss over here ..

confused .. many info .. some are opposite to each other .. shortage of tools as im in country does not support the snakes as pets .. !

no vets .. no snakes medicines .. no full info .. no full experience ..

no one knows any thing but just keep saying bla bla bla ..

so im confused here folks .. ! dont know what to do i dont just love snakes but i adore pythons i have them almost a year now ..

i have an adult male but not on the right weight although he is about lets say 1.20 meter maybe few cm less

he lives in a big habitat of wood with glass window i made it myself .. 90 cm by 50 by 50 .. with hiding box water dish ( not shallow not deep ) news paper substrate

a lamp gives 100 w ( it is power saver ) so it is 20 w but gives 100 w .. yellow beam ...

hmm what else .. i guess that is it nth more ..

more about the problems

well im not satisfied with the lamp ( for heating and lighting ) but dont know what else should work better we dont have that kind of bar heater or that humidity stuff ( but i can make one .. i mean the device it self as my friend is a Medical Devices Engineer so he can make a small device measures the humidity in air ) but that is not the main problem the prob is how can i control it ?? if it is low .. how can i raise it ?! vise verse .. anyway we dont have high humidity here neither low .. :)

** but before some one attacks me for not caring good or 've not done a research before the purchase .. the python is doing great good health eating well enjoying sitting over the lamp ( not the bulb itself lol )

and i did alot of research the thing is most of the articles talks about how it lives in perfect shape .. unregarded the differences between each community plus the people here are too busy to make silly things for that silly things called " pets " oh .. hell so busy VIP people lol the flag here is " MONEY TALKS " not " I AM A HUMAN AND HAVE RIGHTS " that is not our problem anyway .. but i just wanted to let u know the shortage i live in .. pets here means cats and dogs only those are the pets GOD created .. but hey wait u got me wrong although not for enjoying living with animals but for selling them " MANY TALKS " again LOL

back to my problem .. the second one is that i want to breed them " not for money " lol but for me i love to breed animals have that feeling of helping another soul to come out to the world and the only thing they knew or see is me .. they are like my kids

ofcourse i ll ask the basing silly question " HOW TO SEX " and dont say loop the tail squeeze a little and wait for the balls lol my python is trying to prove to me that he is the stronger and being " hey im not touchable " lol

and after i get a female what to do ?? some people say feed them well then introduce them together after lowering the temp .. and some says just put them together and watch .. so .. ?? which one is the bla bla bla man ?

i dont want links and article i already read alot .. time for the real experiences

put in ur considerations that i live in a place that does not take snakes as pets .. but as beast monsters must be killed .. ! so we dont have even a T-shirt with a python picture as a far future pets lol

so is there any one can help me ?? at least tell me how does it goes there in ur habitats :(

sorry for talking alot ,

George
 
i forgot to mention the important part about medicines and the first aids i must have in case something happened to them .. and of course we dont have a medicine specially for snakes over here .. so can i make them ?? i know alot of doctors can get me the materials and make it for me , but i always was wondering how snakes took medicines anyway LOL
 
Just a couple quick questions for you. What are the temps in the cage (hot side and cool side)? How often are you feeding him? What size prey are you feeding him? Is the snake shedding in one peice?

If your python is eating he is most likely healthy. Another sine of an unhealthy snake is if they are noticeably losing weight.

Now to the breeding topic. I noticed in your post people do not like snakes where you are from. If you breed them will there be people willing to buy your snakes or adopt them? Other that that I have not bred any python species.
 
reptaid i strongly recommend i had lost 3 ball pythons couple years back do to some complications and i recently picked up reptaid and reptaid xl for all my snakes. im not going to go into a huge story but just google it and u will see what im talking about the product is legit.

well although am not asking for info on my python ... i just wanna knew few things missing here ( like separate heating as i depend on lamp for heat and light ) ... but the temp is room temp around 20 - 23 C . at night ( and the cool side ) goes down 3 or 4 D , as it is still cold for him so i make sure not to feed him alot so he wont get sick so i stick to 4 or 5 in month ( * he get used on that so if i gave him food not in time will not concern in it at all )

i give him ( 2 ) full grown white mice or hamsters in the meal

yes all get off in 1 piece ...

that what i said :) i have no problems with my snake itself .. he is doing great and i have been raising python since a year back and researching about them another couple years .. so i have no problems in pythons at all ... all i was asking about is due to the shortage of tools for snakes in my country i need another solution like how to make ( DIY ) the heating tap ???????!

and about breeding the sources of buying and selling pythons are few here but still there .. do u know for how much a python 90 cm sold here ??? about 300 US Dollars .. and we have only the royal , indian , Burmese , and from time to another few albinos found .. so i guess yes there is some shops can buy them , yesterday i agreed with a reptiles broker on that ( if i bred them he ll buy them all ) so the selling problem is solved now :)
