I meant the ugly snake thing.....

But tis a gaboon.

And, maybe a viper? XD

What could possibly have clued you in?

[Chozon1]

Symphony?

haha, well... the head shape did. Vipers have a very distinct head/body shape to them, and certain rattlers are the only snake I've seen which come close to looking similar. XD

That and the color is that of a viper. -_~

Symphony?

...of the night?

[Deepfreeze32]

Avenged Sevenfold?

[Chozon1]

Ooo...good game.

So, would it be better to get a hiding log to fit the size of the snake, or just go as big as I can? The ones from that guy are from 09 and feeding on pinkies.

Is the sexual content/nudity of Dragon Age a bit off putting to you?

[Nix]

Avenged Sevenfold?

Freaking rules. o.o

It's better to get a log that fits the size of the snake. Otherwise the snake feels too "exposed" and more than likely won't use it. I had to get a new hide just yesterday for my king because he refused to go into the other ones, which were from the corn's cage. So yeaaah. It does make a difference. ^_~

Is the sexual content/nudity of Dragon Age a bit off putting to you?

Um... no, not really. I don't even know what's in it, but it can't be worse than God of War or GTAIV.

Is it bad?

[Chozon1]

Huh...I'll have to get the hides after I get the snake then. Or send off to see how big they are. I'm planning on picking out the snake by hand, but it's a 60 mile trip. So I can't go look at them now. -_-

Israel?

[Nix]

Ah, well... if they're '09, just buy the "small" size of hide at whatever pet store you shop at.

Also. Chozon.

http://www.reptilesupply.com/

Best snake-ish site besides RP. o.O

Great prices, and all that.

And.

Israel ftw. <_<

Sorta. -_-

[Deepfreeze32]

....Sorta?

[Nix]

....Sorta?

Well, the Israel from the Bible? Yeah, I love reading about that and find it... interesting. I do about the one today as well... but I'd not so much wanna visit there. <_<

[Chozon1]

Thanks. ^_^ That place has WAY better prices than my local Petsmart. O_O

Have you ever seen a Banana King Snake?

I've kinda fallen in love with cornsnakes, so yeah. I'm planning on that. Snow, or candy cane, if he has any. But I thought this was cool.

Edit: Schnap. I feel it prudent to add you've saved me nearly 40 dollars including shipping. O_O I love you.

Edit X2: Twenty-xty six.

Do I need a day bulb, basking bulb, or fancy red bulb?

[Nix]

It does have great prices, aye. I plan on ordering from there for like... ever. reptilesupply.com > every other store.

And yeah, the banana is cool. They had them at the expo. Heck, they had every corn imaginable at the expo. Every. Single. One. Hundreds.

Also, <3 corns. Granted, they weren't my first snake so I can't say that they've been with me the longest "that goes to a ball python...) but... I love corns. So easy to care for. So much fun.

Aaaaaaand.

Well, just use whatever bulbs it takes to keep the temp up. I'm told that it's best to have a day bulb for the day and a lesser powered night bulb, which is what I do when I can afford both. (though sometimes I'm stuck with just the night bulb, but that usually works fine if I keep the overall temp of my room up)

But yeah, I'm going to order three or four day bulbs off of RS soon. They're cheap enough, and worth it if you can get it.

Here's what I use:

For day (wattage varies depending on what size of cage you've got):

For night, something like this (again, wattage varies):

http://www.reptilesupply.com/product.ph ... cts_id=173

Now, I warn you... wait a while before switching the day/night bulbs if you're using one lamp. A hot bulb... well, it's hot. And it sometimes breaks when you try to unscrew it. That's happened to me... many times before I caught on. Usually with the night bulbs, but yeah... XD

Also, these are the heat mats I use (size varies depending on tank):

http://www.reptilesupply.com/product.ph ... cts_id=489

Now... I recommend either going one size smaller than what they say (though the 10-20 gal should be fine for a 20 gal, but for a 10... it's just too hot), or else you may... fry your snake. I just got one of those 10-20 gal sizes for my new king's 10 gal tank, and man. It's just way too hot. It'll kill him if I leave it on. Sooo. Either go a bit smaller, or get one of these:

http://www.reptilesupply.com/product.php?products_id=75

Those supposedly are the best (seeing as until now I've not needed them, I haven't used them). They control the heat and keep it just right for the snake so as to not let it get to the "burning" level. Buuut. I... am kinda broke, and can't afford one for the king right now. Or else I'd have one for him. XD

(right now I'm just using bulbs, which is fine if you keep the temp right... but there's nothing like belly heat for snakes, and so that thing there is on the top of my list ^_^)

They're good though, I'd bet money on that even though I haven't used that exact model. But I know plenty who have, and everyone says "YOU MUST GET THIS D00D IT'S TEH BESTEST THING EVAH". >_>

So yeaaaaah.

I'ma get that asap, and I recommend you do too if you need it. (which you may not, you're getting a 20 gal long, right?)

I'm also ordering some of these:

http://www.reptilesupply.com/product.ph ... cts_id=392

I've been needing new thermos and those come highly recommended. I've not used that brand or model, but every guy I talk to who's a herp owner says they're the best. And considering I'd need 3-6 of them, I like their price.

So again.

Um.

I go on too long about this stuff.

Mind listing all the stuff you were planning on getting? I'd just be curious to look at it. ^_~

Aaaaand. My boa just shed. And she's hungry. So I'm off too feed her.

[Deepfreeze32]

Savatage?

[Nix]

Hmm... never heard of them. They a band, or is it... something else?
