Posted by: mountainkings at Mon Sep 6 18:16:05 2004 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by mountainkings ] Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it. I have given the idea you mentioned some thought before but never tried it because I was concerned about the impact that the "Carefresh" substrate (the only substrate I use with snakes ever) might have on the airholes in the deli cup. I even loosely filled a cup once and put a snake in it for about an hour, but before long, the holes looked almost entirely blocked. Granted, the Carefresh mesh probably breathes better than most, but it still worried me. This is were the hammock comes into play. If you build one of these deli cups with one in it, place the snake inside, put the cup into the snake bag and then rotate the container a bit (simulating the shipping experience) and then open the bag up, the snake is almost always wrapped up tight around the hammock. Granted, it might be a little stressed (or even a lot stressed) but it's much better than just a folded or cut paper towel. Let me know what your thoughts are on the air flow or breathability of the deli cup filled with substrate. I know you mentioned that you've shipped this way for years, but what has your loss rate been (if any)? Thanks again for the feedback. | ||
